Please sit with me and listen   I hear a different drum   Maybe you will think twice before you fall asleep   This image reminds me of a whore's attempt to get clean   A beggar's eyes when gold is in sight   Honour in the eyes of a thief, truth in a liar's speech   As real as a dream   As real as painted puppets on a painted scene   I see the great pit   The beast and the eye   Hardly ever listen to what you say   Any colour's fine as long as it is black   I'll die alone, afraid and hated   I'll lie unwanted, unburied and godless   These words remind me that I have to die
