opening of a season

    this is the only thing we truly mean
    once the departure has been set in stone
    no one regards the value of the scene

    so much hangs on each one standing serene
    even when we have left them all alone
    this is the only thing we truly mean

    the days and nights remain totally clean
    we do not want to hear a single groan
    no one regards the value of the scene

    we do not grant the worth of just one bean
    to anyone who speaks of the unknown
    this is the only thing we truly mean

    shadow and substance have each a routine
    and we will listen still for every drone
    no one regards the value of the scene

    it is too late to be earnest and keen
    the knife has cut us to the solid bone
    this is the only thing we truly mean
    no one regards the value of the scene
