Libretto, by Todd Boss:
Hear me brothers I’ve a confession painful to make Six years I have endured a curse that deepens every day They say that soon I’ll cease to hear the very music of my soul What ought to be the sense most perfect in me fails me shames me taunts me
A silence haunts me They ask me Do you hear the shepherd singing faroff soft They ask me Do you hear a distant fluting dancing joyously aloft No I think so No I think so No God am I Prometheus exiled in chains for gifting
humankind my fire Take my feeling Take my sight Take my wings midflight but let me hear the searing roar of air before I score the ground Why Silence is God ’s reply and so I beg me take my life when lo I hear a grace and feel a ringing
in me after all So now as leaves of autumn fall I make my mark and sign my name and turn again to touch my flame of music to the world a broken man as best I can As ever Faithfully Yours A bell A bell Hear me and be well
