Exposing cold lies he told in the daylight
As he crawls on his old, drunken knees
In pornographic mania and guilty release
Mid-life never saw anything as wretched as this
He lives for a short time in guilty bliss
As his addiction runs all through the night
There is no denying the cold facts of his life
He attempts to hide the stain he wallows in
With no hope for tomorrow as his dying begins
Not long from his cold and desperate grave
He has forgotten the love I freely gave
I'm as cold as the cracks he threw my way
In this mirage with my dignity torn away
And the moon is full and bright tonight
Exposing my dreams for a happier life
