You "rest in peace" through sepulchre of stone? You lost your life and could not find your home? Passed away as if you were possession? Euphemisms wont cure my obsession! Can't you be dead? Be ravaged by the beast Of father time. Blind by all of the feats Of man unkind? That cancer tore your dreams And made all your nightmares link in with mine? Just say he's dead and that he sleeps no more. Then I'll pick up my soul from dirty whores.
