Looking for Lyrics in All the Wrong Places

Google, that faithful friend of mine, has drawn a blank on both of these songs. I therefore cry out to my flist for assistance. Does anyone have the lyrics to either of the following songs?

"Forty Thousand In Gehenna," sung by Kathy Mar - I'm not sure if she wrote the lyrics or not. Googlesearch turns up references to a book of the same title, which now I think I'd quite like to read; does anyone know if the song appears in the book?

"(The) Dark Time" - Ben, I'm looking at you on this one, because I have an mp3 of what I'm fairly sure is you singing this, but I don't see it on your website. Not sure if that's the title; the opening line is "There once was a man condemned to die / Though he had committed no crime."

Sing out if you can help me, people!

I'd have to transcribe "40,000 in Gehenna" from the tape ("Finity's End", IIRC) so I can't do that 'til tonight.

Googling for those bits of lyrics I remember doesn't produce any results.

And a little MORE research gets me this page (http://www.geocities.com/justin_wiccan_tweb/filk/finitys-end.html), which says that the song is a Lackey/Fish
