Locked in a room full of words

I?m the one-eyed midget with the curse

The simpleton who sweetly smiles at his young lover now beguiled

Stoned as I walk down the hall

The adman waits to hear the curse and call

The angels scream in discontent as to the river they are led

The actors bow and pay the rent, we cover them in cold cement

Let's swing for the crime everyone in double time

Surprised now you're not the only one
