Half Happenstance

Lyrics

The fates released, no, not the cause Despite the stories you’ve been told More blood than care is true because It’s as you are, not what’s been sold

And through the garden gate we pass Then contemplate without a glass

In every way the end betrays And struts and frets through all your days The whisper stalled before it spoke Half happenstance and beaver broke

Oh, Destiny, the temptress true She offers you the hero’s gate And knows the fear inside of you No cheer, no key, a day too late

And through the garden gate we pass Then contemplate without a glass

[Chorus In every way the end betrays And dances madly through your maze The whisper came, then silence woke Half happenstance and beaver broke

The moon grows softer, day by day Is if she feels the coming night She comforts those who’ve lost their way Then disappears beyond their sight

And through the garden gate we pass Then contemplate without a glass

[Chorus In every way the end betrays The fight gives out, the dream decays The whisper lingers, words just choked Half happenstance and beaver broke
