If ever there was Death,
Than how could he miss me?
If ever love was blind
It never stumbled where I might see.
If ever you should see me
Feel a little pain,
But judge not of the man
With hurt he can't contain.
If ever I had trust
That seed has blown away.
If ever I gave freely
T'was not to need, nor from today.
If ever you should see me
She'd a single tear
But do not judge the life
Of a man controlled by fear
What a great opening! Sad, powerful.
