Pale Rider

Unforgiven

Stand up and volunteer, only if you really mean it...

This is no time to apologize

You might just be a day late and a dollar short

Don't bother making up excuses and phony lies

If you intend to keep sniffling and pouting

You might as well pack up your things and dry your eyes

We have an epic challenge ahead that puts a knot in our throats

All of us are dreading the idea of having to deal with it

Ring the church bell, yell for your neighbor to grab a hat and coat

None of us expects to solve this desperate dilemma alone

We are definitely up a creek without a paddle

This humdinger is probably going to take the sweat of our brows,

breaking our backs, and chilling us to the bone

Have you got what it takes?

Can you stand and deliver?

The moment has finally arrived...

Either stay and hang tough or go away...

There is no straddling the fence in the middle

About the Creator

The Fashion Design Academy Company

See it...hear it...feel the breath of life

From its silence softly whispers

See me in your dreams and secret visions endlessly through the night

In quiet desperation I await your gentle embrace wishing and hoping you can unlock me...
