Estadium Nacional - Magellan

Have us all under siege, now do you understand?"

Gossens ministers — all at hand

Will take up final stations

As the coup hunts a single man

No offer of exile did he take in his last trial…

Covert action — Santiago

The U.S. denies it but the president knows

Broken fathers, strut of the guard

See cruel opportunists where the losers die hard

Seeking refuge from this «land of fire»

Allende supporters are gathered

ESTADIUM NACIONAL

They disappear, ask them how the tortured shall

Dispatch a message to loved ones now

Their photographs worn by survivors

ESTADIUM NACIONAL

A swede is the only trace of redeemed grace

As Edelstam prepares a place

Of asylum but without «sanction»

Fleeing persecution — visas feigning new

Identities

So they wait there at the embassies…

Labor takes a fall (IMPENDING ASCENSION)

The White House seems appalled at the disgrace

They toast a secret cheer in executive session

And keep it going strong (wear a gameface)

Hunter Hawker dive (IMPENDING ASCENSION)

Superiors decide it’s a rat race

It’s all about control (IMPENDING ASCENSION)

See Nixon take a hold from his powerful place

How much terror for five thousand?

How many others suffer on the outside of this stadium?

Is there no end?

These are my last words-treasonous hands

Have us all under siege, now do you understand?

Hear my last broadcast-mic in hand

Workers rise up-bear arms-the coup rapes its own homeland

Hold on th your memories («disappeared families»)

What justice befalls our enemies?

Allende supporters are gathered-ESTADIUM NACIONAL

They disappear, ask them how the tortured shall

Dispatch a message to loved ones now

Their photographs worn by survivors-ESTADIUM NACIONAL

We pray just to turn the page upon this stage

Of human suffering-a world enraged

Now there must be a new resistance!

Cardinal commission, extraordinary will/solidarity no wish to kill

Am I dreaming?

How can all of this be real?

Will I wake to see

These horrors still?
