The Golden Ring -

Gather round, my friends, to me Advice I have for you

It stems from my experience

And I swear that it is true

We’re all meant for adventure,

There’s paths where we must go In light of my last journey,

There are some things

You need to know

All of us are tempted,

All of us will fail

The trick is learning right from wrong,

And letting good prevail

We all can have the power now

Of Darkness to command,

But what could happen to your soul

If you wield that

Upon your hand

CHORUS:

For it’s easy to be careless,

Easy not to think

Easy just to vanish in a blink,

Denouncing your reality

Such a simple thing

A harmless habit, much as putting on A golden ring

You wear it closely to your heart

As if from a heavy chain

It shreds the soul to many a part

And you’re never quite the same

Don’t ever heed its beck and call,

Its hatred and its ire

For if you love this world at all

Return it to It’s forging fire

Now you’ve listened to my thoughts,

Pray keep them in your mind

Someday it might seem easier

To be cruel or unkind

Remember some of what I’ve said

For when the moment’s through

Of danger done by darkness,

The bearer then

Might well be you
