July

It was raining down love from a thin

My room and the walls began to warp

The colors in my face were all washed out wrong

And the lights began to short

I heard you call out my name but I couldn't find the way

And the foes were asleep

Then your face in the light began to shadow of fright

Kill good sleep

There was just enough light for me to watch you

Leap through the hole in the wall

Should I build or burn your effigy as the buildings fall?

I refuse to become a martyr no matter what you say

I'll be gone this time tomorrow I only live for the day

Gawd I hate July, I scream into the sky

For what it's worth on the face of this earth I refuse

To be denied...

I left him looking on past in hiding into the street

You were cold and gray again and you couldn't even speak

I pulled out the singe from the mouth of disease

And I begged for the truth

I was cursed by way of comparison it broke me in two

I spat upon my unmarked grave in the heat of the spite

I screamed my insect bitter needs in the middle of the night

Bury the martyr to his neck and feed him to the worms

Replace his blood with toxins look at him burn!

Gawd I hate July, I scream into the sky

For what it's worth on the face of this earth I refuse

To be denied...
