"As the pain ebbed with each hungover day
I made arrangements
As muse mutated into an act
Of bravado and adventure became a play
And he the unwilling player
Fulfilled engagements
Dragged by a paperchain of dollar bills
That were not strong enough to bear the weight
Of his commitment to this unequal fight
Filial advice offered became his rage
Against the dimming of the light
As the tunnel's 'never end' came into sight."
I made arrangements

Of bravado and adventure became a play
And he the unwilling player

Dragged by a paperchain of dollar bills
That were not strong enough to bear the weight
Of his commitment to this unequal fight
Filial advice offered became his rage
Against the dimming of the light
As the tunnel's 'never end' came into sight."
