Standing in the desert once again Without my illusory den
You danced your devil’s dance I oscillated in your beguiling black-swamp romance Sweet chocolate-words dripped from your tongue-snake I ate your poison cake
I wore my sentimental fool cloak You wore your cheater’s toque We danced with the butterflies and birds All along you were girds
You gave me a reek swamp drink You pushed me to the cliffhanger brink Wild horses dragged me back to the memory-putrid A flame red hatred is thundering deep inside me
Still feel the raptors menacing eyes Their claws demonize Asphyxiating my innocence No helping hand
You have thrown me to the raptors again Feel their sebaceous wen We lost our twined I am now only a string in the wind
