|
where were the eyes that followed |
|
how could they've found? |
|
these misery's merchants |
|
struck the message deep |
|
"we have come to stay" |
|
dogs fled there in the dark of his path |
|
feared him as once they all did |
|
like a ghost in daylight |
|
on an overcrowded street |
|
he wishes |
|
to be something he is not |
|
lie a shadow at midnight |
|
that originate in air |
|
he wishes to release |
|
deep in the back it had caught him |
|
the anchor they threw at his life |
|
oh these misery's merchants |
|
dragged through life as a burden |
|
rushed off to his cage of glass |
|
to open the single window |
|
a means of escape, out in the open |
|
there are still holes in these walls |
|
puking information into the unwanting |
|
probing the last hope of defence |
|
so he plugged up the holes |
|
shut the outside window |
|
in doing that, madness payed a visit |
|
...and then suddenly in mid-thought |
|
escape was a factor and as from inside |
|
pushing out were words |
|
through fingers came uncovering |
|
revealing the truth of him there in the dark... |
|
skin began to crawl as they neared him |
|
is all pleasure release? |
|
oh these misery's merchants |
|
saw the message clear |
|
"it is time to pay" |
|
like a ghost in daylight |
|
on an overcrowded street |
