Fabiano Negri


Intoxicated and wasted and still strong
Never standing in the same place for long
The perfect city to hide, a place so special
A hell for lease, kinetic and commercial
(This is love)

An intimate performance picks up the beat
In the same breath, wisdom and primal heat
Access denied for those devoid of substance
Nirvana is yours if you can take a chance
(This is addiction)

Sleepers and hustlers in winning streaks
Wry twisted fucks and talented freaks
Adrenalin and androgyny to pay the rent
And you just reached the age of consent
(This is sex)

No future in the eternal city
And you think you’re so pretty
Das modell blares away
Lie to live another day

Street thugs and brainwashed queens
Damaged little girls and mean machines
Artists decompose their creative crossroads
Junkies waste away while the city explodes
(This is beauty)

We’re the founding fathers of all deviant freaks
Hot and cold particles colliding while time leaks
Our presence sparkles coldly with evil intent
The waking city bears witness while we ascend
(This is human)
