Beware of Darkness

The hopelessness around you

Watch out now, take care
That is not what you are here for
In your fingertips, beware of darkness
While weeping Atlas cedars
They just want to grow, grow and grow
Winding up inside your head
Dancing down the sidewalks

Beware of soft shoe shufflers
Beware of the thoughts that linger
As each unconscious sufferer

They take you where you should not go
Watch out now, take care
It can hit you, it can hurt you
The pain that often mingles
Beware of greedy leaders
Make you sore and what is more
Beware of sadness
Watch out now, take care
Beware of darkness
Wanders aimlessly, beware of Maya
Dropping all around you
In the dead of night
