How come the things went so far? Then I faced your storm Why may I not start afresh? Stiff and stark well-nigh So my life is not worth a bean All my deeds I've done before Stultify my maxim bearing and mighty will My pursuit of a toff Posing for a matchless man Playing as not all there Rolling back the moments gone Prone to small talk I insist on wooing you again Come what you may I broke open the wall Then I faced your storm I was knocked down at once Stiff and stark well-nigh Like a mote I'll drift away My sweet lies will blow me out And leave me on a rigid grit and swampy soil Flesh for monsoons Can it be the tail wind Will come by and by? Wolves and snakes, piled in heaps Decaying on my chest Dragon's flames and gorgon's eyes Leeching free on me
