The Wing That Reaches All

[Intro - PIPE ORGAN solo only, single tone grows from silence to full cathedral resonance, no vocals, all stops opening gradually] [Spoken Word - German, whispered, only UPRIGHT BASS beneath] Freu de, schöhner Goetterfunken, Tochter auss Elüsium, Wir betreten feuertrunken, Himmlische, dein Heiligtum! [Verse 1 - English, fragmented jazz phrasing, BRASS soft beneath, no guitar yet] The press was set, the type was cast A single page for every hand The word that kings had locked behind their walls Now printed free across the land [Pre-Chorus - ORGAN swell box opening, CHOIR enters softly, GUITAR sustain enters beneath] Deine Zauber binden wieder was die Mode streng geteilt — [Chorus - full organ ALL STOPS, CHOIR fortissimo, GUITAR and DRUMS enter, BRASS fanfare] Alle Menschen werden Brüder wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt! What the feed divides — the page unites What the pixel hides — the ink reveals Brotherhood was always made of paper Print the wing that reaches all [Bridge - spoken German, ORGAN solo, GUITAR sustain beneath, DRUMS silent] Seid umschlungen, Millionen! Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt! Brüder, überm Sternenzelt Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen. [Instrumental Build - ORGAN full principal chorus and BRASS fanfare, DRUMS escalating, 16 bars, no vocals] [Final Chorus - German and English simultaneously, EVERYTHING at maximum volume and density] Alle Menschen werden Brüder — Every page a door thrown wide Freu de, schöhner Goetterfunken — Print the fire, let truth inside [Outro - CHOIR a cappella only, no instruments, then ORGAN single final chord, 8-second cathedral decay to complete silence] Alle Menschen werden Brüder... Alle Menschen werden Brüder...
