a simple frame

[fledgist]

this is the moment when we count the cost

add up the symbols and sum up desires

no one must say just how much more transpires

 

in time we reach the realm of those who lost

their hearts and minds to the glibbest of liars

this is the moment when we count the cost

 

but not before we yell at those who tossed

aside the limits and cut through the briars

challenged the foolish and passed through the fires

this is the moment when we count the cost
