Upon a Sixpence

Lyrics
In overview the light expired And with it went the narrative he’d always craved She’d told him once she’d give him Everything he ever needed or his heart desired... Now the darkness descends, that’s the gift she gave (One of them is for the chop One of them assured to flame One of them is bound to drop And they’ll not meet again) And as for him he’s not quite sure He’s worked his passage here entirely blamelessly She told him once his fate Could turn around upon a sixpence But the light’s gone down, time and tide is up And the money shot’s no longer there to see Now the darkness comes And that’s the only thing he’ll ever get for free
