Rock Head


Rock Head


The prospector clad in desperation
Spends his life seeking discovery

Fortune is his coy mistress
As he sifts through misery

Digging deep beneath the surface     
That dirty truth of obstruction

His sorry existence consumed by greed
Obsession sows the seeds of self destruction

When he finally finds the glow         
And the glimmer blinds his eyes

All he holds in his hands is fools gold       
Payment for a lifetime of lies
