Lose No Sleep (Angel of Sadness)

Gather my remains from the noose you keep 
Last of the darkened sheep 
Stress minus satisfaction so I lose no sleep 
A fallen sculpture from the noose you keep 
Last of your darkened sheep 
No apologies, for I shall lose no sleep 
Another episode, epidemic 
Pieces of my debt’d limit 
Volts of electricity 
The reception, should’ve filmed it 
Another suspect misfits your description 
As I sat back I realized 
These spectators adore my addiction 
Sudden changes would restore my ability 
To produce nonfiction 
A given charge and I’ll blow 
Son of friction 
Once again 
Officer has chosen me to wrongly accuse 
No mistakes 
The privilege has been to longly abused 
Swearing the good book, the got warrants 
Monroe’s PD as scandalous as hot torrents 
Illegally born 
Another uniformed eagle torn 
Blah Blah, just another kid blaming a cop 
In your eye sight 
I remain the criminal to be stopped 
I’m everything you could never be 
An image of purity, but doubt you’ll ever see 
So gather my remains from the noose you keep
