I dropped all of my lovers   And I stood up and screamed, I'm in love      You gave it to me through the eyes, hatred   Centuries deep and true   I was wrong, graceless and sick   All of the things that I had learned had been wasted      There was no living creature as foul as I   And all of my poems were false   I could feel my soul dropping down through the mattress   I had to leap up before it hit the floor and I'm so alone      Illumination held out in front of my reaching arms   The darker things get the better I say   I'm so alone and so are you   We all live and die that way      You gave it to me through the eyes, hatred   Centuries deep and true   I was wrong, graceless and sick   All of the things that I had learned had been wasted      There was no living creature as foul as I   And all of my poems were false   There was no living creature as foul as I   I could feel my soul dropping down   I could feel my soul dropping down
