I'm calling out perversion
In this city of glass
My hammer knows it has me
Spitting no

Look at the light
Bringing hope of diversion
Someone said is gets dark
Someone said it gets darker
When I lift up my head
Into the light
Crawl into the light,
Straight into the light

I. The actor
Distorting mime
The sailor, the dog
The drunk boy left reeling
I, the murderer
Drunk on crime
The hammer, the snitch
A bitter temptation
I, the perversion
Unknown kind

The mother, the bitch
A silent fixation
A silent fixation

Look at the light
Bringing hope of diversion
Who said it gets dark?
Who said it gets darker
When I lift up my head?
Into the light

Three minutes are up
In these houses of hatred
My hammer knows it's got me in its hold
It's got me in the hole

Now I lay me down to sleep
For what it's worth
I dress my tears in costumes
For what it's worth
I look at the light
