Mausoleum
Here lies my youth
So polite and couth
Here lies my guilt
Dead beneath these pillars built
Greed yet lives, however sick
And apathy, thy name is Nick
And I rest in your mausoleum
For ever and ever ad nauseam
Just over the hill
Lies the addict without his pill
Behind that weeping tree
Lies the hopes of the free
No one mourned for Truth
Too busy reclaiming wasted youth
And I rest in your mausoleum
For ever and ever ad nauseam
All at once beauty did fade
And was soon forgot by the *****
But from this once barren field
Our new life will yield
Fed by the bones of the mother
And spurred on to uplift one another
And I will rest in your mausoleum
For ever and ever ad nauseam
