The Mayor of Longview

Evermore
Journey on to Evermore
There you will find a man
He's living in the future
He's got the time
And nothing else is on his mind
But he can tell you tales
And sing to you a song

Here we are
Sitting on his patio
All around
The animals of Evermore
Gather close
He's whispering a scary tale
And if you listen well
There's truth within his story

Nevermore
Like a cloud upon his soul
Reaching out
To take him from among us
He's just fine
And all who stand beside him know
That the shadow will pass
And glory is his destiny.

...He has shown himself. The sorcerer has returned to destroy us all, though his destruction works from the inside out...and I pray daily for an end to this. If only the Lion would return. Evermore needs its champion.
