Seven Livers
They had lived many lives, betrayed many dogmas
Carelessly of drama, shame now a silly diorama
Portraying a world of talking socks, empty puppets
Clueless in the face of the mighty's many rackets
Oh they live on today, and tomorrow again
In their pockets packets of love and fresh water
Shooting stars that burn, acknowledging the pain
Knowing it's the means to make their lives matter
For who wants to live an existence of no troubles?
Broken hearts and bodies, emerge from the rubbles
Standing at the ready and prepared to rumble
Card players, they dug up the lost with their spades as shovels
Kings and Queens of a throneless realm of the living
Into a limitless world they'd never cease to deliver
Near the ambrosias of serenity they'd be sustaining
Lucky they all were to each bring Seven Spare Livers.
