Around This Life
Horse and buggy
Horse around
Around the barn
Around the town
Town and country
Town hall meet
Meet some new friend
Meet to eat
Eat for love and
Eat from pain
Pain of heart
Pain of bone
Bone deep longing
Bone to pick
Pick a scab
Pick apart
Apart from life
Apart alone
Alone within a teeming crowd
Alone is never quite allowed
Allowed by fate
Allowed to try
Try to never reason why
Try to let the games go by
By myself here
By the road
Road to ruin
Road back home
Home calls roamers
Home fires burn
Burn with pride
Burn with lust
Lust for life
Lust for power
Power craved
Power corrupted
Corrupted files
Corrupted values
Values knowledge
Values wisdom
Wisdom squandered
Wisdom gained
Gained in prestige
Gained the stage
Stage production
Stage of life
Life abounds
Life is magic
Magic life
Abounds with wonder
