I knew a man, I 'm proud to say
|
But he couldn't live in a world he couldn't see
|
The laws of life, it 's ways are cold
|
Hidden patterns genetic mold
|
|
No one seemed to know for sure
|
A knowing look of falling to death 's door
|
Living unreal, time is to steal
|
Booking passage on a journey unknown
|
|
Blackened veins of nihilistic sadness
|
A painted mask substance induced gladness
|
With a spike or from a bottle
|
Tiny cartoon pictures on a square of paper blotter
|
|
He was a man, was fear's machine
|
Sickness don't fail, don't succumb to self-esteem
|
Unseen vessel, undreamed flight
|
No one knows if you were wrong or if you were right
|
