I dropped all of my lovers
And I stood up and screamed, I'm in loveYou gave it to me through the eyes, hatred
Centuries deep and true
I was wrong, graceless and sick
All of the things that I had learned had been wastedThere was no living creature as foul as I
And all of my poems were false
I could feel my soul dropping down through the mattress
I had to leap up before it hit the floor and I'm so aloneIllumination held out in front of my reaching arms
The darker things get the better I say
I'm so alone and so are you
We all live and die that wayYou gave it to me through the eyes, hatred
Centuries deep and true
I was wrong, graceless and sick
All of the things that I had learned had been wastedThere was no living creature as foul as I
And all of my poems were false
There was no living creature as foul as I
I could feel my soul dropping down
I could feel my soul dropping down
