¨¨~~*%$§## ~ ~ ~ ~ Elves Live In The Land ~ ~ ~ ~ ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### ~ ~ ~ ~ Beyond The Great Dam. ~ ~ ~ ~ ###§$%*~~¨
¨¨~~*%$§## ~ It Was Built In The Late Sixties. ~ ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### ~ ~ ~ The Elves Came To Us Then. ~ ~ ~ ###§$%*~~¨

¨¨~~*%$§## They Were Very Manipulative, And We ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### Came To Trust Them. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Us ###§$%*~~¨
¨¨~~*%$§## Kids Would Play Down At The Water Even ##§$%*~~¨¨

¨¨~~*%$§## Beneath, And We Would Go There. ~ ~ ~ ~ ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### ~ ~ ~ ~ Before The Dam Opened Again, ###§$%*~~¨
¨¨~~*%$§## There Would Be A Signal, But The Elves ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### Would Make Us Not Hear It, And Suddenly ###§$%*~~¨
¨¨~~*%$§## We Would Find The Water Rising, Already ##§$%*~~¨¨
¨~~*%$§### At Our Knees. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ###§$%*~~¨
