Winding Down - Deliverance
This song uses a newly released Prince song called "Deliverance". This was released a year after his death. I used these lyrics as a refrain in my poem:

"Because time's so hard to deal with,
now understand
Your deliverance is at hand"

Winding Down - Deliverance

Historical repetition
Categorical superstition
Makes for solitary days
Caught up in a purple haze

"Because time's so hard to deal with,
now understand
Your deliverance is at hand"

Before the Dresden curtain fell
Not knowing life could be such hell
Lies forever recompense
Burn the candles, hide incense

"Because time's so hard to deal with,
now understand
Your deliverance is at hand"

After tumbling into outer space
Searching for that state of grace
Winding down the stairs at last
Pushing forward, grief too fast

"Because time's so hard to deal with,
now understand
Your deliverance is at hand"
