Time for Bedlam (First Take) |
Descending the cold steps of the institution for the politically insane |
Never to be seen again |
Saying farewell to daylight |
From henceforth I shall rot in a stinking bed of wet straw |
Right from the ashes of life I learned to behave |
What to believe, what not to say, from cradle to grave |
Ah, like a good little slave |
Sucking my milk from the venomous tit of the state |
This clearly designed to suppress every thought of escape |
Ah, I surrender to fate |
No pity, no pity |
Don’t want no pity for me in this filthy cell |
I’ll see you in hell |
See you in hell |
Frozen in time, I’m a specimen pinned to my throne |
With an army of butterflies pilloried placid and prone |
Ah, we were never alone |
No pity, no pity |
Don’t want no pity for me in this filthy cell |
I’ll see you in hell |
After centuries of living with nothing but my convictions |
Broken fingers clawing through the walls of my incarceration |
Escaping the clutches of eternal damnation |
I was justified |
