Words & Music: Benny Mann
Spring 2001
Chuckled lightly when it first
Slyly glimmered in my soul
Barely caught my attention
When it finally took hold
Kicked its way into my head
Helped me bind and gag my heart
Auctioned off all that mattered
Promised me a better start
Over my shoulder
I feel that road
And I remember
Where it leads
Life is fraught
With worries friend
But never again
Worry about me
Listened to whispers
Tempting what might be
If I bent my back a little
Under sightless greed
But I awoke before I broke
And I’m back old friend
You’ll never ever ever find me...
Find me on...
The wrong side again
And I can’t quite remember
When it snuffed out my light
Taught me to drop my weapons
Convinced me to watch the fight
But misery and sorrow
Swirled round with battle cries
I answered that stark beckon
Ripped apart the lies on lies
