he gave me hope
a few stollen kisses and so much more than that
but where is he now?
my love is gone and i feel he was a rat.
for there were no commitment songs
no pledges gave him me
and now i see the truth beneath
a sun on broken sea
a glass charade, a laughing stock
my love was but a joke
i see the smiling eyes of those
beneath a wanting smoke
they wish me choke on such a thing
all eyes which pray on such a sight
but i see now those idle few
those demons in all their delight.
so laugh you fools i bid you do
i wait for you to smile
for now i know just what you are
and it is no beguile.
go laugh it up i want you to
please do so i will wait
for as you laugh with eyes closed shut
i stand determining your fate
you stupid few i wish to you
all good fortune you might sell
in that deep wonderland of fire and dreams
and nightmares found in hell.
