They're "special" to you, I've noticed.
In a way, just so familiar
I was special to you like that, once.
But now things are peculiar.

And if I remember correctly,
I was quite special to you, indeed.
Their "special" can't compare
Because my special just exceeds.

You're simple if you think on it.
Not much to really ponder.
Sweet-talk you just enough
And we become your godly wonder.

Yeah, I've seen this all before.
"Oh, I've found somebody special."
No darling, you love anyone who
Can cater to your mental.

But eventually, they'll grow tired
And leave your *** alone.
And as quick as special comes is
As quick as special goes.

My rhythm like the little drummer boy.
I got a beat when I'm running from the cops.
Catch me rushing from fence to
Fence.
I only halt for the pink flowers in the ***.

The summer lady went and cursed my name,
'Cause my presence was offensive.
I felt rejected by her
Glasses and the lenses.

The sound of the sirens always sort of
Felt hurtful.
They speed so fast, they blind my eyes with their purple.

Blue and red flashes.

You know, I give a show for the masses.

The sun always sets slower than molasses.

I found a rose in her garden.
The same color that the bullet's gonna give me.
And for an addict, you know they have no pity.

I just pray I trail blood through the city.

Does your soul writhe in guilt in the depths of the night?
Do you drift through the universe
When sleep gently kisses your deceitful brow?
In a fragmented world
As you carelessly dream
And I silently scream

Wandering idly with little thought of others
Stumbling foolishly from star to star
Closing your eyes to the affliction
Casting glances on hearts afar
In your dreams
Do you hear my screams?

Does your soul tremble with remembrance of words?
In the black of the night?
As I spread my dark wings of vengeance
Ascending fiercely
Into waiting fiery skies
While I dream
And you scream
