Is it right to let the boy in on the mystery
of sadness and loss
of the ladder of compromise
and the dark cost
let a dead man choose the moments
no idea what's truly heard
this way comes the dark man
the story, the word
there have been other hard times
who can ever say which is harder
this I didn't see coming
overrich but rickety larder
In my own dark secret world
I'm bartering for hope
not sure what I'm offering
fearing all I'll get is enough rope
