Monolith of despair.
Obsidian door. But open a crack.
Enough to see the pain shining through.
I knock on the sarcophagus.
She answers tentatively.
Painful, anxious.
The mummy is awake,
Today is a good day.

Rain on, take all my life
Stain on, say what I can't.
Rain on, all of the past
Stain on, stain on my soul.

Wrapped around me
Circles dead
Drenched in blood
Hang em high let em dry
Sunny herbs
Awful stench.

Shame you're a game
Untoward and outward.
Never did understand it.
Cowardly within reason
Just a touch.

Eyes down first number,
Curtain call on pain,
That's it folks the shows over,
Game set match,
Call time
Enough is enough.

If the shoe fits, buy the matching top and let's call it an outfit.

The sky is blue
The pavement grey
And I'm feeling particularly gay
It's a good life
It's a good day
To slit your throat.
