Not hear? When noise was everywhere! it tolled


Increasing like a bell. Names in my ears


Of all the lost adventurers, my peers—


How such a one was strong, and such was bold,


And such was fortunate, yet each of old


Lost, lost! one moment knelled the woe of years.

There they stood, ranged along the hillsides, met


To view the last of me, a living frame


For one more picture! In a sheet of flame


I saw them and I knew them all. And yet


Dauntless the slug-horn to my lips I set,


And blew. ‘Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came.’

—Robert Browning


“Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came”

I was born


Six-gun in my hand,


behind a gun


I’ll make my final stand.

—Bad Company

What have I become?


My sweetest friend


Everyone I know


Goes away in the end


You could have it all


My empire of dirt


I will let you down


I will make you hurt

—Trent Reznor
