The Thief and the Moon - Shawn James

Said the Thief to the Moon, «I'll extinguish your light soon

I’ll put an end to all the light that you shed on this world in its darkened

state.»

Said the Moon to the Thief, «You know not of what you seek

You’ll doom the world to wander the night with no light to guide the paths that

men seek.»

«Oh, but all the wealth in the world will be mine

Without a means of defense for all those blind

My very existence is a race to attain wealth

For the thief’s only loyalty in life is to the Devil and himself.»

«The earth will rise up and devour all that you are

The skies will call forth thunderous storms from afar

When you’re dead, there’ll be no grave to remember your name

For your greed brings your end and there’s no one but yourself to blame.»
