picture, if you will, a lone rider on the plane he's got eyes like a hawk, in his hands he holds the reins but he knows not where he's supposed to ride to still he rides on without a clue and he has no fear the end is near in the cold, into the wind, he wraps his scarf around his chin he bristles while he glares into the darkness with a hidden grin the rain is pouring to the ground the thunder makes a deafening sound he shakes his fists and shouts, you can do better than this there is no end just what's next around the bend on the day the fire burned he rolled around in the embers cackling like a wild animal with ticks beneath its fur his horse vanished with the smoke the rider just laughed at the joke and so he stood and walked on into the woods onward through the mountain snow where no man ever dared to go a creature from the great below reared his head and blocked the road a lesser man would've tried to run but the rider procured his gun he aimed for the head and shot that demon dead there is no end just what's next around the bend if you listen close, you'll hear the echoes of his ghost laughing madly through the night but never coming into sight it's a sound that will chill your bones while you were busy skipping stones the city raged and silently turned the page it's the same now as it was then, everyone's waiting for the end that moment when we make amends and put it all together again like somehow we got off course like somehow we lost our horse but the river bends and so it will bend again there is no end just what's next around the bend
