I didn't write this song. This is a cover of the greatest song ever written. It was made by a genius unlike the world has ever seen, and I'm merely trying to capture the essence of the original, like a cheap Xerox machine in a dirty alley. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not having been good enough.
lyrics
The acid moon and the leopard skin sigh
The Narcotic Skyline lingers, resigned to its fate
Wander amongst urban decay
Graffiti on the crumbled walls of yesterday
The circus of life is eternal
The walls of reality are an illusion
The circus of life is eternal
The life slithers from this world
The life slithers out of me
The life slithers out of me
The life withers out of the world
Shieeeeeeet.
