A Boy With Roses

Ego nescio quomodo factum

Ego nescio quomodo factum

 

What has become of me?                                                                                                             

I'm a fish in a sea of cordial emotions                                                                           

Sleeping through disconsolate afternoons                                                                               

I have dodged the bullet                                                                                               

By the wayside

 

Unable to smile                                                                                                                     

What has become of me?                                                                                                               

I've split into two separate halves                                                                                                     

I have been to Hell and back                                                                                                   

I have barely made it

 

My body is filled with venom

My body is filled with hatred

It makes me squirm

When I look at the deep cuts

Glowing silver

 

I'm wrestling with dangerous thoughts

Working harder than the Devil

I've solved the case

Seen through it like it was cellophane

The night winds were like rays biting

A brassy spine

Disconnected, I've disconnected

I left a message on the voicemail

Left a message on the voicemail

Unbuckled the girdle

 

Ego nescio quomodo factum

Ego nescio quomodo factum.
