Lyrics
Matchbook Seeks Maniac
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In a cage the quiet ruby-red bunker
Unseen boy who have control of the room
Power will need the boy
Why does power always seek the boy?
Why does power make the crazy boy more more?
Was the boy ?? ??
I am here
I will sell myself to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell myself to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
I will sell myself to the devil
If I can be the top of the world
Be the top of the world
He was funny and fine sweet sweet good boy
Said he liked me like power
Dreams the boy not like before
Oh no
I am not a boy I can't hold all the powers
All the power that men will start ??
I don't care I have power
Heart and soul I know what I want
Oh no
I am not a boy I can't hold all the powers
All the power
Matchbook seeks matchbook seeks maniac
Matchbook seeks matchbook seeks maniac
