I Can See My Teenage Father Standing Straight On A Desolate Corner

In The Shadow Of Tentacled Towers By The Red Light Of America.

When She Heard That Her Husband Was Dying.

And The Underground Heroes Of The Tarmac Shooting Smack

Were Blowing Up Worlds And Damned Out Loud.

Hey, Can You Tell Me How Does It Feel ?

Doing Anything That You Don't Have To ?

When I Slept With Stony Faces On The Riverbank,

D# E
My Angeldevil Reveler Shook Me Desperately In Dying.

I Don't Exactly Want To Apologize For Anything.

B C# D#
And Now We're All Mad And Tangled In Secret Rooms

With Roman Candles On An Endless Graveyard Train.

And A Song Came On My Radio Like A Cemetry Rhyme

For A Million Crying Corpses In Their Tragedy Of Respectable Existence.

Trying Half The Things You Ever Wanted To ?
