Lure of the green II

Night ascends
The depths of the dark
Swallowing the greed of the morn
The dance of the grey begin
Once more.

This is a world where I die
Nothing is mine, nothing yours
It's just the world as it was

No soul goes down on its knees
To be on the mercy of the rich's decree
No heart is sold for a penny or two,
No mind enslaved
No love betrayed

The cry of the dawn awakens the eye
I rise
One more.
I succumb
To the lure of the green.
Again,
I wait to die
Until the night
