    Everything is rags and there's nobody to blame but me
    And it would be so easy if there was noone to hurt but me
    But now everything that i do coming out of me
    Will just tear through you
    In and out of you
    Up and down your life like a curse

    (so that when the sun bursts,
    When the rain falls, when the wind blows,
    I rip through your heart. on a horse called nightmare,
    Bucking and spitting, i ride to your house

    In the home of bluebeard, blood flows as red as any flag
    Death cries "victory is mine!"
    Laughter echoes,
    And death just claps his hands
    And then time stands still, castles fall,
    Lightning strikes the tower, announcing chaos

    Sunday's child scales the walls
    Of a paradise then dives into darkness.
    A fool playing god
    With one foot in eden, one foot in hell
    And blindness in his brain
    And fever in his eyes
    Lies on his tongue
    Still saying "this is just a dream"
    /
    Cast by the only son of rags
    Who would wrap you up in all the finest tatters
    But he wanted nothing more, my loved one,
    Than to wrap you up in joy
    But it never be with me -- you and i are like two worlds
    Not meant to collide
    Death to each other
    In the unravelling of time

    So how do you... how do you like it?
    What kind of dream would you call it -
    To have one foot in eden,
    One foot in hell
    To be always numb,
    Plagued by demons
    Summoned by angels at the same time,
    Endlessly)

    But i will burn me
    Right out of this place.
    I will lay you down to sleep
    So when you wake
    I'll be gone
    And you
    Will remember
    Nothing
    You
    Will remember...
