it can take a life erasing what’s in sight the walls engulfed with light and nowhere is the same the ones that turn you wide the blinding mighty lie 'til milady from the night takes me down inside i tried for days after days at ending night taked it and breaked it but it still stayed upright and when i told the night i can't see the light it chained me with the leads two leaves and a trial height and night inured by the light one in all my dear fall down true life brutalized by time it comes down to winning whither is the cheat? oh oh whoa now chasing through the night fighting in this life putting up the knives tearing down the light we all sink when in life we decide gonna cheat gotta chase gonna take

have you heard the tale of the upstate cat who found a good comrade in downstate rat on a sail up the river lead by old captain dog they landed ashore and encountered a frog the frog said good day and welcome, my boys cat and rat asked where are we and the frog exclaimed troy captain dog snorted this is Ilium (like he knew the best) frog raised her chin and croaked Ilium fuit Troja est where the moon pulls the Hudson way down to the sea the little birds sing at the promise of thee and old steeltown bums put their beers down to hear all the bells of troy as they're ringing ringing frog showed her new friends her best haunts and asides as the day was long and the sun was high until the steeple bells marked the end of the day and down the merry band made their way frog and captain dog had made amends embraced and departed the best of friends and the upstate cat and downstate rat felt all was as it should be and it shouldn’t end so they sailed up the river far from the sea far from the lights far from the city and built a house out of timber wood and all was good

grey is the mantle grey is the cloak grey as a fog made out of smoke on a plain street sword through the heart the heart on your arm under the white pines grey are the ashes grey is intent grey as your eyes very intent under your little white cross from the road you stand out in the thousands of them like your gait in a crowd
