it’s a dog eat dog world and that’s a fact the big fish eat the small fish it simply works like that the cost of living is often dying the price of freedom is slavery in the new babylon everyone you meet is trying to screw you over but they have little choice they have to take their shot coz those billionaire messiahs stir a bloody pot
we’ve all been up we’ve all been down this old life is a merry go round just try to remember that it’s only a ride it’s never too late to get high so do a carpe diem get up and dry your eyes today will fade away but tomorrow never dies
there’s a tyrant in my heart knee deep in atrocity there’s a tyrant in
my heart bleeding out hysterically the poison he spews forth is
petty mean and selfish he’s tearing me apart but I’m under his
bloody thumb
there’s a tyrant in my heart who lashes out in anger there’s a tyrant in my heart who wields a vicious tongue the abuse he dishes out fills me with remorse I could die of shame when I think of what he’s done
there’s a tyrant in my heart who severs my connections there’s a tyrant in my heart that wants me all alone he whimpers in the dark and rails against the light yes a tyrant rules my heart and I’m not the only one
I’m in deep too deep subterranean tunnelling in the dark sifting shit for a living if you can call it living I’m inclined to think I’m beyond that I was pronounced dead by the committee and the committee ought to know this could be my hell or some other phony religious device I’ve got to get out of this hole before it becomes my nest I’m loaded with dynamite I just don’t have no matches but one day I’ll explode catalysed by friction and I’ll see you all again in the kingdom yet to come
I fell for the psycho-sexual intrigue again it was fucked up but she said I was her man who was I to disagree? did you ever get the déjà vu? the feeling that you met before? I’m a sucker for that shit I guess we’re all the same my alarm bells were ringing but I didn’t listen I tried to tell myself I was only in it for the ride I’d take it as it comes coz I’m that kind of guy but I’m a sucker just the same that cannot be denied
slowly turn the tides to ebb and flow in darkness what’s the spread today? am I gonna make it? coz I feel low like I’m definitely sinking there’s a pattern to my days they grow darker in procession I’ve been blunted and the sun barely reaches into the hole I’m digging it could be darker that’s the way it’s heading my progress is relentless the darkness unforgiving
I stared in the mirror until I no longer recognised my face but saw in my
reflection that friday’s child is a trumpet of peace and a sword of
deliverance from the forces of darkness
I laid me down by the still waters an oasis of life in the motherless waste the wisest of fools will surrender their hearts to the love universal
I’ve been turned out with no brass in my pockets but I count the stars as personal wealth my home is heaven this born again loser who supped with the devil and drank to his health
