I do wrong, strictly speaking, just for myself
|
Because it makes me feel like a real man
|
To hold germane over my business
|
And I refuse to be abused by the mill of blissful decay
|
Besides, I'm used to all of my scruples deserting me
|
Like they're wont to dare
|
|
The lady from the plaque hunched over on the stool
|
Saying I've been rolled so many times
|
It's just feeding the pigeons
|
Now her grandson swings a little rabbit by the leg
|
While his mother's playing two little wooden flute
|
Playing some fugitive air to escape the streets' waggeries
|
Pathetic!
|
|
Has anybody here seen my orphan blonde?
|
Has anyone seen where he's gone?
|
What he thinks I owe him is his former life but
|
How can I unmake someone else's mistakes?
|
I guess I was his antihero, the bitter word on his lips
|
I hope I never feel a terror like when you discovered your autonomy had flipped
|
|
I feel like I possess only the bright aspect of his ability but none of the good ones
|
I'm a walking mausoleum, the scent of rotting flesh
|
Mother always loved you best, liked your teeth upon her breast
|
The smithy remove the oils from the eyes of street cats
|
Through some shitty witchcraft, and rubs their brows and genitalia
|
I had no idea how deeply I wounded you
|
But I don't need no forgiveness and no level of contrition will ever do
|
