let memory speak and we may learn the new
symbols and signs of a far better time
the rising towers always stay in true
we find ourselves still seeking for a clue
or any explanation for the crime
let memory speak and we may learn the new
the answers may come before they are due
and messages will shortly fit the rhyme
the rising towers always stay in true
winners are many losers are but few
from starting shot until the closing chime
let memory speak and we may learn the new
we urge the laggards to join with our crew
before the day has reached its proper prime
the rising towers always stay in true
choices are made and someday we may rue
the effort we have put into this climb
let memory speak and we may learn the new
the rising towers always stay in true
(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
