Servant Of The Light.

I skipped, and I danced, and I sang.

When I was young,

I skipped, and I danced, and I sang;

when I was young...

When I was grown,

I laughed, and I drank, and I fooled around;

when I was grown...

When I matured,

I tired, and I looked, and I puzzled;

when I matured...

When I grew wise,

I wept, and my soul was sorrow;

when I grew wise...

Then I grew angry,

I floundered, in outrage, and I failed;

when I grew angry...

When I changed nothing,

I withered, and I dithered, and I dangled;

when I changed nothing...

When I grew old,

defeated, and broken, and powerless;

I died...

As I awoke,

in blackness, and silence, and horror;

so I awoke...

When I was young,

in anguish, in torment, in sorrow;

when I was burning...

When I was grown,

in sadness, in thirst, and in silence;

when I was grown...

When I matured,

I tired, and I looked, and I puzzled;

when I matured...

When I grew wise,

I fed, and I drew from the flames,

when I grew wise...

Then I grew calmness,

I awoke, and I thought, and I acted;

when I grew calmness...

When I changed perception,

I developed, I expanded, I evolved,

when I changed perception...

When I grew old,

I skipped, and I danced, and I sang;

then life began....
