The world is wintery cruel
When colours turn to grey
In the end we die alone
Will you curse or will you pray
Machines that turn the world
They push, thrust and shove
Spurred on into the flames
By selfless acts of love
Another fools parade
We dance into our graves
Death's shadow hanging low
Over saints and knaves
Like lepers led by lepers
All flesh is dust and grass
Sic transit Gloria mundi
This too shall pass

Let there be light to remind us of darkness
Let there be night to remind us of day
Let there be death to remind us of living
Let there be love to remind us of hate

The actor and the fool
Are pieces on a chessboard
Bound by rigid rules
To keep their god less bored
Apocalypse comes creeping
With a whisper, not a roar
Heaven, Hell and Purgatory
Symbols and metaphors
Rivers of sorrow and toil
Trickles of pleasure and joy
Slivers of love and hope
The Creator loves to destroy
Blind leading the blind
Killing our own kind
We wear the cloak and harness
Of Shakespearean darkness

Let there be light to remind us of darkness
Let there be night to remind us of day
Let there be death to remind us of living
Let there be love to remind us of hate

Woe
The poet turns the page
And all the world's a stage
When all his words come tumbling down
Woe
And all the world's a cage
You can't tell fool from sage
When all your kings are mumbling clowns

Let there be light to remind us of darkness
Let there be night to remind us of day
Let there be death to remind us of living
Let there be love to remind us of hate
Let there be light to remind us of darkness
Let there be night to remind us of day
Let there be death to remind us of living
Let there be love to remind us of hate
