Marionettes |
| Many marionettes |
| Dripping from your fingers |
| Grinning mesmerized |
| The foolish ones they linger |
| Dancing to your time |
| Rattling to your metronome |
| Painted and gilded |
| Lamed to the bone |
| All your parlour games |
| Spellbinding patterns in their brains |
| Sucking your cheroot |
| Worshipping your photograph |
| Like a peepshow prostitute |
| A voyeuristic phonograph |
| Masked grotesques |
| Performing pirouettes |
| Shadowing silhouettes |
| Ghastly rictus smiles |
| Sickly in the gaslight |
| Finally extinguishing memories of a past life |
| You sold your soul so long ago |
| Paid in silver, let the candle blow |
| And on your own with your reflection |
| You spread the cards, but you never find the fool |
| Spinning your web, your ectoplasmic ball of gloss |
| Handing around your sweetly poisoned candy floss |
| To the dolls of your desire |
| Come hither, come higher, stand closer to my fire |
| Surrender |
| Surrender to the kiss of the abyss |
