Tear the sun out of the sky
And in that make us all blind
To the hurt of human nature
And the pain of human lies

The deceitful beings who inhabit
This earth like snakes they lurk
In huge distaste to mock us
As they taste us as they smell us
With their flaming forking tongues

So shall I slash and gash
Bleed dry the beauty you sought to own
You used to claim that
Filthy fiver fluttering to the ground
Like an autumn leaf fallen
But once that incentive’s gone rebuked
You care not
Smile no more and move
On to other easier pickings
And another night another smile
Flash and blink
And when eyes open now
‘Tis another different face

So many you are lost to me
Riddled in disease and uncaring

To think they would let me be fooled
To prove your point
Well ‘tis a point well made maybe
But it will not stop me
Nor should it
And I’ll continue til
I too am riddled too deep
So then I can close my eyes at night
Because I need to flee this world
Need to flee this loathing

Misery is an odd time
And madness is still insane
And life still needs living
Til daytime becomes once more inane

So may we all be lost
Riddled in disease and uncaring
