“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost."

Laughing echoes in distance
Taunting me to give up
Whispering sweet promises
Like a stranger seducing me
Luring me to the edge
Of the an everlasting pit
Growing with every step
The stranger’s lips brush mine
For I have fallen in love
With a lies of a good life
He smiles as he kisses me
Pulling me close
Knowing that I love him
He grins knowingly at me
Pushes me over the edge
Taking my place in life
While I fall until the end of time
