Desire paired with loneliness Is quite the ugly pair Light the rooms inside my heart My guts exposed threadbare And I ponder, And I ponder All these mountains with no view And my wanderlust takes over While my troglodyte subdues Desperation paired with insanity Is quite the gruesome two You foam at mouth and commiserate With hallucinating beasts inside of you And I float there, And I float there In this vat of carcinogens strong Perfect aim meets jugular My cat and mouse shan't take too long! Reason paired with logic Is a fable wrapped in dreams There's people who are sane out there? No neurosis bursting at their seams? As I sit here, As I sit here Etching brainsick into stone The faces of my personal Rushmore A mocking comfort (I'm not alone!) Enmity paired with self-affliction Are the volcanoes I prepare No need for collusion or invaders I'm my own Cotopaxi terror!
