Salome

I fell in love with this fish, it got caught in my mesh
 Treading water on the surface of the bottomless depths. I guess
 a diamond's nothing but a rock with a name.
 Took it to the pawn shop up on Providence Lane
 The song's solemn, sweet sympho, serpentine,
 dug a ditch for my severed head and flead the murder scene.
 Saw me making progress, saw me do my thing,
 saw the magic that could turn a peasant to a king.
 Saw me drift gently down the stream in a dream state
 and reawaken with a chlid's smile and a clean slate
 Say something, touch a nerv, make a mean face.
 We would argue every day for a week straight
 They say it all for the best, I don't disagree
 She's throwing shit at me I'm screaming like Kid Capri.
 Sweet misery, physically sick, heatless,
 let me live my life the way I see fit.
 I saw the light that day
 like we don't ever have to live our lives that way
 Salome lead me down the right pathway
 Take my head, watch the light cascade
 You suffered, you coped, you moved, you shaked,
 you falling in and out of love, you play the game,
 you make mistakes, you split, you brake,
 you found what you lookin for and move on.
 New day, new dawn, you were gone too long.
 Love is a very strange thing,
 amputate the limbs and infect it with gangrene
 My queen shook me out of a dream,
 "something's out of place", she said
 "it's for the best", and vanished without a trace
 We're all trying to self awaken or let our selves go,
 self medicate, self indulge and self loathe.
 I was somewhere in the second cirle when hell froze
 Lost all control to self moving in stealth mode
 Right place, right time; bright lights, white lines
 Everything's gray, everything's gray
 A clean slate drifted gently down the stream, dream state
 Everything's gray, everything's gray.
 You're a universe but you don't know your own depths
 It's time we shed our own flesh
 and confidence nest we're on the home stretch
 Some people got heads like Omex
 and hollow eyes for crows to peck
 'Til the eagle dies a slow death
 I am making progress see me do my thing,
 Saw the magic that could turn a peasant to a king
 See me drift down the stream gently in a dream state
 and reawaken with a child's smile and a clean slate.
 I saw the light that day
 like we don't ever have to live our lives that way
 Salome lead me down the right pathway
 Take my head, watch the light cascade
