You'd look good in plaster
Much to everybody's shame
Walk around on casters, burning,
Our "eternal flame"
It's a fire that keeps us
Glowing stronger every day
Betrays a certain weakness
And a faith that stays away
I see you
What you are
I see you
What you say Disappear
Someone caught me looking
Dancing on my "Fire Escape..."
Oh, I Could shit the past, yes,
That's a chance I'll have to take
Could've seen much clearer
But I didn't have the time
Walk the path that's nearer
Face the day and start a climb.
I see you
What you are
I see you
What you say Disappear
Spinning around
like a catherine wheel
Put your head inside
where I make my meal
Ready or not
For a love affair
with an old coke-stove
And a wheelchair.
