The piped piper taking rats to the sea, stealing children and watch them drown, for hopes go with the youth.
Dead down on silent docks as bleak waters kiss the shore, quote like Poe and the whispers "nevermore"
Nevermore and Neverwas, and just like the the hopes are dashed and so go the youth so go the hopes, down into the deep blue where rolling waves smother and crush the lungs of those who try to gasp for air.
Piped piper piping down the lane, dragging with him those of faith and those insane, piped piper playing a song, some for pay some entertain.
