Caveat
The end is the beginning
The beginning is the end
Time doesn't care and the rules it won't bend
His father is spiteful and rigid at best
A Nazi of progression certainly deaf to protest
Offer him bribes of silver and gold
Ask him for more to seek fortunes untold
The pleas go unnoticed he ignores one and all
Giving beggars no solace as they stumble and fall
We each get our chance with no bargains to be made
When the time comes into darkness we fade
The lesson persists for all it is clear
Live while you can and live without fear
