Let That Be An End

about

Kaichang wrote this one to bring us back down to earth with a crunch. War isn't a joke, she says. We kind of knew that...

lyrics

LET THAT BE AN END

The sun is setting through the haze
Not one of our better days
Lie still, my friend
No point in moving for a while
I'll prop you up against this pile
And let that be an end.

They had the edge on us somehow
But it doesn't matter now
No way to mend
I can hear a horse somewhere in pain
I guess I'll go out there again
And let that be an end.

We did all right, you know, we two,
We stopped the bastards getting through
We saved the day
Bought our lads time to make a plan
Though we perished almost to a man
The princess got away...

Maybe the message that she brings
Will reach the captains and the kings
Where they contend
And maybe now the tide will turn
The fires of war will cease to burn
And let that be an end.

I'd like to think that that was true
That the war would end soon, wouldn't you?
I know you would
Maybe then all this would be worthwhile
Nice to think that what has been so vile
Might come to good...

Is it getting dark, or is it me?
Not that there's a lot out there to see
So let the night descend
I'll just lie down here at your side
Here where my comrades all have died
And let that be an end.

Zanda Myrande Westbury, UK

Zanda Myrande is still recovering from the trauma of being Zander Nyrond for several decades. She has only come out online at this point, for reasons which may be apparent from the picture above, but she proudly embraces her trans identity while still giving house room to Zander and the rest of the deadbeats who populate her head.

Lives in Wiltshire and has better friends than she deserves. ... more
