Price

A price for everything

Pay with sense to sing

A free life for a ring

Dreams for smiles to bring

Blankness to sanity cling

A price for everytime

Weary mornings for a night prime

Bruises and cuts for fun's grime

Gutter's slime for a much-needed dime

Loved faces for fortuitous clime

A price for everywhere

Comfort of here for a greener there

Beauty for a well-fed layer

Innocence to be a player

Scruples for unwilling cheers

A price for everyone

Hopes for every crime done

A rose for every gun

Countles nights behind the sun

Home for a man on the run

A price for you

Taunts for a love so true

Embraces for a heart beaten blue

A price for me

Freedom for acceptance plea

My whole world for this wild spree
