inspired by the writings of Alexandry SoltzenentkA

Gulag

Cast adrift from his home and land
Comes the writer words in hand
No one knows if he’ll stay or go
He’s just going where the current flows
He was guilty of no lies
He just wrote the tale of his eyes
What he saw was what was shown
And for this they made him leave his home

Red flag blood flows no one on their side allowed to know
No truth may flow, in the echoes of silence, he knows

Now he comes to our shores
With his tale of death and war
Some desire not to hear what he says
Because it does not cheer them
But the words he says are true
Do your best they still haunt you

Red flag blood flows no one on their side allowed to know
No truth may flow, in the echoes of silence, he knows

Now the time has come to open up your eyes and see
Now the reason for the cries
Hear the words he tells you
Listen to what he tells you
He won’t lead you astray

Red flag blood flows no one on their side allowed to know
No truth may flow, in the echoes of silence, he knows
