You can huff and you can puff but you'll never destroy that stuff. |
|
Finally, I see why, I suppose... |
|
Kid, you better change your feathers cause you'll never fly with those things... |
|
In These Nights... The boys sing - "Hello, emptiness! I heard you're alright. |
|
I heard you're alright. |
|
I've heard of you..." |
|
A body aching, fragile, and pale: dark valleys house its trail. |
|
Why can't you see that a life in art and a life of mimicry - |
|
It's the same thing!?! |
|
The room was crowded, and though you couldn't care less about it, |
|
That much was true. |
|
That month - another version of this miniature Rome to set fire to. |
|
Why did we stop ****ing around? |
|
Girls like gazelles graze. |
|
Boys wearing bells blaze new trails in sound. |
|
I looked up. |
|
I looked around. |
|
A famous Toronto painter shot me down. |
|
"Oh, I've busted my ass on these streets too long," he said. |
|
I set fire to the bed and tore his gown... |
|
Felt some mercurial presence, hitherto unknown. |
|
It was the sun. It was a stone falling through blank space. |
|
It was that jewel-encrusted roan getting in my face. |
|
Looked across the way to The Princess Rooms. |
|
I saw brides and their grooms. |
|
I heard the sound of bells ringing! |
|
Cinders look back fondly upon a house on fire when across |
|
An ocean we go. |
|
We row and we row and we tire. |
|
Now, step out of the darkness and into the light. |
|
Yeah, it's common knowledge I've been doing alright. |
|
No, I can't complain. |
|
On the Eastside, midwives' lives go down the drain all cause our babies are dying... |
|
I lifted the veil to see nature's trickery revealed as pure shit |
|
From which nothing ever rose cause nothing ever could. |
|
I swear somewhere the truth lies within this wood. |
|
I swear, Looters' Follies has never sounded so good. |
|
And, win or lose - what's the difference?... |
