Lost
A darkness so deep
Acts upon thou befuddle
Depose withon steel
Open world to reel
Times apart fair
With your hand in my hand
Taking steps in sand
Bedeviled of oblivious thoughts
Unable to outrun the devil
Seeking the light upon this little night
Feeling thy tainted skin on my kin
I hold a goblet of fine gold tin
Slightest thought of demean
Caused to trouble within
We end this wind in powdered sheen
