Blinking
Of sun and moon and star to crest
I never felt that I was blessed
I love to sleep inside the mess
Maybe the devil wore a dress
Should I behave inside the cave
With morals to deny the crave
I mate the fate I can not shave
And thus my bliss becomes her slave
A clock work orange where seconds burn
Out and about nowhere to turn
After the hour my flesh will burn
For minutes 'til I'm in the urn
Pretending...living in denial
Only known for a little while
Forsaken by a precious smile
My lust shall thrust something most vile
I love to sleep inside the mess
Maybe the devil wore a dress
Of sun and moon and star to crest
I never felt that I was blessed
