‘You look like someone I know’
Heard that line a thousand times
Guess I’m scattered round the globe
Like farmers planting seeds serpentine
Have you heard the front-page news
Eden lives far underground
And God is just a hidden camera
Making sure the lost stay found
Big games of the life-sized kids
You were ‘not It’ by a hair
Fingers on a Ouija board
Fuck the truth just give me dare
Tweedles are now stalking triplets
Killing riddles, sinking ships with
Everything but the black lipstick
Crooked smile and rusted toothpick
Every friend is a stepmother
Eying you with pools of dead fire
As she sticks her acid tongue
In the mouth of your pure desire
Walking blind and blurry-eyed
With two chambers in each hand
Each are bloody, tame and wild
Beyond these walls, beyond these lands
Only fools know the true score
Cause they’ve locked the exit-sign door
You were almost worth dying for
Now it’s the ninth circle of this war
