as insatiable greed
or mindless hunger...
i'll keep my secrets
and they keep me warm.
tin foil and tar
what i've seen
long nights at the bar
what i've seen
what i've chosen not to.
So i stopped my flight
and the demons are closing fast.
fire bright eyes and razor talon
make reality fade into pain,
cleanse my hands
cleanse my hands
suspended rain...
a bottomless pit
to which we cast
our sorrow, our thoughts,
our most valued possessions.
the procession stretches
to horizons unseen
to pay tribute to ideals unclean.
is there method to madness?
