True Cost
Beyond the immediate
We will never know
The true cost
Of our own actions
Either in thought
Or deed
Purchases made
Or items unbought
Hallucinogens taken
Or liquids drunken
Words spoken
Or thoughts forsaken
Intentions concluded
Or never fulfilled
Dreams never dreamt
Or nightmares stilled
“We will pay the price
But we will not count the cost”
Rush “Bravado”
