Lone Lust

It's been said

O, by that chorus of vultures above

To run toward your fears

Kicking and screaming you were down on the tracks

In this room facing the glass this reflection

A memory entombed as a hologram of your youth

And an echo between the two

I'll die a lonely fool

I'll die a lonely fool

I have seen the man in his suit as he stares

He haunts me aware of this delusional little fool

So elusive is his flesh and bone

I'll die a lonely fool

I'll die a lonely fool

I've bled from my gums singing songs in my sleep

I've hidden from youth, seen my mother grow weak

I've powdered the walls with the dust from your skin

As I've murdered my mind

I've lied to be loved

I'll die a lonely fool

I'll die a lonely fool
