Dirge | |
I hate myself for lovin’ you and the weakness that it showed | |
You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road | |
The stage was set, the lights went out all around the old hotel | |
I hate myself for lovin’ you and I’m glad the curtain fell | |
I hate that foolish game we played and the need that was expressed | |
And the mercy that you showed to me, who ever would have guessed? | |
I went out on Lower Broadway and I felt that place within | |
That hollow place where martyrs weep and angels play with sin | |
Heard your songs of freedom and man forever stripped | |
Acting out his folly while his back is being whipped | |
Like a slave in orbit, he’s beaten ’til he’s tame | |
All for a moment’s glory and it’s a dirty, rotten shame | |
There are those who worship loneliness, I’m not one of them | |
In this age of fiberglass I’m searching for a gem | |
The crystal ball up on the wall hasn’t shown me nothing yet | |
I’ve paid the price of solitude, but at last I’m out of debt | |
Can’t recall a useful thing you ever did for me | |
’Cept pat me on the back one time when I was on my knees | |
We stared into each other’s eyes ’til one of us would break | |
No use to apologize, what diff’rence would it make? | |
So sing your praise of progress and of the Doom Machine | |
The naked truth is still taboo whenever it can be seen | |
Lady Luck, who shines on me, will tell you where I’m at | |
I hate myself for lovin’ you, but I should get over that |
Dirge | |
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed | |
You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road | |
The stage was set, the lights went out all around the old hotel | |
I hate myself for lovin' you and I' m glad the curtain fell | |
I hate that foolish game we played and the need that was expressed | |
And the mercy that you showed to me, who ever would have guessed? | |
I went out on Lower Broadway and I felt that place within | |
That hollow place where martyrs weep and angels play with sin | |
Heard your songs of freedom and man forever stripped | |
Acting out his folly while his back is being whipped | |
Like a slave in orbit, he' s beaten ' til he' s tame | |
All for a moment' s glory and it' s a dirty, rotten shame | |
There are those who worship loneliness, I' m not one of them | |
In this age of fiberglass I' m searching for a gem | |
The crystal ball up on the wall hasn' t shown me nothing yet | |
I' ve paid the price of solitude, but at last I' m out of debt | |
Can' t recall a useful thing you ever did for me | |
' Cept pat me on the back one time when I was on my knees | |
We stared into each other' s eyes ' til one of us would break | |
No use to apologize, what diff' rence would it make? | |
So sing your praise of progress and of the Doom Machine | |
The naked truth is still taboo whenever it can be seen | |
Lady Luck, who shines on me, will tell you where I' m at | |
I hate myself for lovin' you, but I should get over that |
