no matter how things make us weep
there's reason to keep on the road
the ending will be just more sleep
if nothing else the wound is deep
a demon makes each kiss the toad
no matter how things make us weep
upon the wall sad visions creep
inside each mind sad lights explode
the ending will be just more sleep
there's not a fact that cannot keep
we may yet strike the motherlode
no matter how things make us weep
they'll make a journey on the cheap
and hope there is no overload
the ending will be just more sleep
only a wolf knows to herd sheep
the flock must answer to the goad
no matter how things make us weep
the ending will be just more sleep
(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
