come ye who bear the grapes of wrath
for the wines of success are close at hand
but if missed death comes
and the decay of sorrow sets in
with the life of redemption lost
and the misguided soul falls into eternity
gone and forgotten
but decay nourishes the land
and allows a new life to form
and let new grapes grow
for this is the cycle
the cycle of the Fall
