fate - alfred drake lyrics
[the poet, spoken]
i sat down feeling desolated
bowed my head and crossed my knees
is fortune really predicated
upon such tiny turns as these?
then fate’s a thing without a head
a puzzle never understood
and man proceeds where he is led
unguaranteed of bad or good
[the poet]
fate!
fate can be the trap in your path
the bitter cup of your tears
your wine of wrath!
fate can be shade in the desert blaze
sudden food in a famine found
the sound of praise!
incomprehensible and strange
fate can play a trick with the twine
to weave the evil and good
in one design!
and so, my destiny
i look at you and cannot see
is it good, is it ill?
am i blessed, am i cursed?
is it honey on my tongue or brine?
what fate, what fate is mine?
fate can play a trick with the twine
to weave the evil and good
in one design!
and so, my destiny
i look at you and cannot see
is it good, is it ill?
am i blessed, am i cursed?
is it honey on my tongue or brine?
what fate, what fate is mine?
