final option

all of our options were presented stark
we faced the same choice in our daily grind
either we conquer or go down to dark

the hungry dog has never ceased to bark
it knows just what the horror is we'll find
all of our options were presented stark

it may have started as some youthful lark
but it has ended with the stars aligned
either we conquer or go down to dark

the secrets that were hidden in the ark
are brought to daylight and are unconfined
all of our options were presented stark

you do not know if we're up to the mark
that has been very much the complex bind
either we conquer or go down to dark

we have to choose either the wolf or shark
the monster strikes with or without a mind
all of our options were presented stark
either we conquer or go down to dark
