I was blind but now I see
Something's taking over me
It lies within, buried deep
and scratches out when all fall asleep
When humans dream, I start to weep
What does it mean, to "earn one's keep"?
What value do you place on life?
How does a husband treat his wife?
What hardship can the soul endure?
How long until you wish no more?
I have seen the end of things
I know what the future brings
Those who stand there aren't alone
And they have suffered to the bone.
