From the recording When the Monsters Come
Lyrics
Will this banquet never end?
The city is burning down
The poison in my soul gains more control
Spinning in toward the ground
I careen around the ballroom
To gratify, satisfy, clarify and crucify
My friends are being watchful putting out the fires
Trying to save me from myself
As I crash through the desires
The channels reek with bad cologne
The dams are just about to burst
You might even think you’ll get away
Not if I get to find you first
The bridges burning
Liberating me
From my hell of boredom
Corruption falls away like ashes
Embers in our wake
Passion’s journey, greed’s disguises
Exposing lurid, wicked life
Possess the dance and call the tune
Caress me with your switchblade knife
I careen around the ballroom
To gratify, satisfy, clarify and crucify
My friends are being watchful putting out the fires
Trying to save me from myself
As I crash through the desires
