it's in my head eating away when you're on stage the theatre is you it found the way crept itself in and there it's now gnawing and chewing crawling and stewing nibbling my conscience away piece by piece brain cell by brain cell to look on you a painful performance the vermin crunches more it gives my citrus tears burning down my cheek rules of possession rules of relation but as I still watch it wont let me mend it's still there now clawing and ripping sprawling and sipping your memories away all down the drain making me insane it knows i'm helpless it knows what I wont do it knows I'll keep watching till the whole show is through I bend in my seat run my hands through my hair sniffling droplets of sear spilling waterfalls of tears and try to cover a sectioned pale tail protruding out my ear |
