The Thief and the Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Said the Thief to the Moon: I'll extinguish your light soon
I'll put an end to all the light that you shed on this world in it's darkened state
Said the Moon to the Thief: You know not of what you seek
You'll doom the world to wander the night with no light to guide the paths that men seek
[Thief]
Oh, but all the wealth in the world will be mine
Without a means of defense for all those blind
My very existence is a race to attain wealth
For the thief's only loyalties in life are to the devil and himself
[Moon]
The earth will rise up and devour all that you are
The skies call forth thunderous storms from afar
When you're dead, there will be no grave to remember your name
For your greed bring your end and there's no one but yourself to blame
