Rosencrantz

Any bereavement
Needs a shoulder to lean its head on

I sing of you
Rosencrantz
Good friend of Hamlet the hero
To you he poured out his ravings and deliriums
You tried to keep his mind safe
To lead him back to his quiet, warm life
From the whirlpool of the nightmare 
Where his father's ghost had drawn him

Can a world succeed without you? 

I sing of you
Rosencrantz
Good friend and foundation of heroes
