There was tension in the air as she left that nightFor a story or a soundbiteEven wild horses could not have stopped her leavingWith their hoods and masks and their hidden facesTheir petrol bombs and bricks they waitedAs the convoy made its way along the foil up to the creganThe stage was set above the dairy wallsIt's time for action, the commander calledUp there where dissidents are not for leavingUp there where dissidents are not for leavingOh, the night was black as the riot beganCrowds gathered and children ranA bullet cracked and Lyra fellWhere she was standingIn the right place at the wrong timeOut looking for a storylineTill they silenced herThat night up in the creganLyra walked behind the linesA rising star said the Irish timesNow her light still shinesDown on those who killed herThere was tension in the air as she left that nightFor a story or a soundbiteAs she left that nightFor a story or a soundbiteEven wild horses could not have stopped her leavingLyra!
