Select language to translate this lyric
Justice fell, as it should,
ceding to the cry for restitution,
defeat drives deep through my hands and feet.
and justice fell with a crashing blow
to collect on the debt I owe,
where the three streams meet
beneath my feet.
But my arrival is all tied up,
my arrival is all tied up,
and every ribbon is a welcome sight,
and a ring around the wrong made right.
Justice fell but could not find
purchase to lay blame and bind,
nor claim my wage from a better Man's day.
Justice fell but could not stay;
arriving just a few moments late.
Hope gives rise with the promise of paradise.
But my arrival is all tied up,
my arrival is all tied up,
and every ribbon is a welcome sight,
and a ring around the wrong made right.
When I awake I will rise in new life.
