Innocence Will Be Enough
Come here, little Andrew
Come and sit on my lap,
Mommy and daddy are gone
And they're never coming back.
Come now, little Andrew
From Peter you will escape,
I'm sorry about Valentine
But we're going to be late.
You're safe with us now, Andrew
We'll help you grow big and strong,
You'll play our little games
And we'll pray that we're not wrong.
Listen here, little Andrew
Your journey will be tough,
But with your crucial leadership
Innocence will be enough.
Good job, little Ender
This is the only way,
Consequences on your behalf
Are not bothered with today.
Congratulations, little Ender
How does it feel to lose control?
We're sorry for any damage
But at least we reached our goal.
Hurry now, little Ender
We must send you far away,
We wish you well; you're on your own
No time to be afraid.
Goodbye, little Ender
No one will forget;
Earth's courageous child savior
But I wish we'd never met.
