Tune inspired by a song by Iron and Wine - Boy with a Coin...the story however...that's inspired by insomnia and life.

The boy shows the true,
but property of
someone else who
shuffles above.
Yet in the dark
and in the black
hands give to want
but wishes them back.

Sow, reap,
all deeds
must keep...

The girl suffers through,
punishment slave
glutton to all
the beasts that she crave.
Still in the light
so bright and true
shows innocence
hiding the noose.

Sow, reap...
all your deeds,
you keep
suffering.
