So much pain Outrun the brain Situated under chandeliers In the old, ailing cavern Reverberating ghouls Lick the well of my ear And now I am frightened By the notion of the sun
Twisted asunder Incisive thoughts Corrupted domain I live under a sky blue dome A construct of my headmasters Where I roam Restless in the gloam
The brain has weighed me down To my knees I cannot find my knees Or my eyes My crooked fleece cannot protect me From the chartreuse breath of the past
Life does me no favours Therefore I will give it everything Until I am hollow and adjusted Senile and peculiar Must the brain remain? Must the brain remain?
My words are a disservice To the motions of the planets They cannot grace this life How little it all may matter
