It's an easy trap, 

Common bait, laid between

The balance of 

A bank account. 

.

.

I think it's far too easy, nowadays,

To sell our souls, far too facile - 

To lose our sense of inner purpose, 

Our concordant, little youthful-spirits.

.

.

It's funny,

.

I always thought I'd meet Mephistopheles

When it came time to auction mine - 

That hell's ruse would be readily apparent:

"Sign here, little duck,"

.

"The truth shall be thy warrant."

.

.

In the end,

.

I sold mine 

For a grocery list,

For bedsheets,

For bliss.

.

.

I think what that means 

Is that it's that which we want most

.

that will ultimately lend

      to kill us.
