By the time you get this missive, it will already be too late By the time the shadows come to light you were already marked by Cain But I've been thinking about your father's guns and your mother's welfare state I been taking shots with vampires down on Ashbury and Haight And I know you want to teach me your moral messages and games But I'm the outsider I'm the wild one, I'm at home down among the flames And I am walking to the mountains to become one with the higher mind And I am turning back the centuries in pretty clouds and painted skies And by the time the war is over well we won't remember why We had started it, before you learned to quit, before you took out your brother's eye And I'm an anarchist, a survivalist, I'm a dreamer for the times, Yeah I'm not broken, I'm not virtuous, I am horny and I am fine I'm the wabi sabi wunderkind, and even death to me feels fine Cuz I'm a hopeful, loving, nihilist I straight won't give up on life, I've seen the beauty of Katanga slum and I know how empires die, It looks like Hollywood, and what you understood, I'm sure you've seen it many times... It's that face there the mirror, it's your hand that holds the knife It's the idols in your temple and how you think you know what's right But I hold with those who favor fire, the ones who dance all through the night The way I almost touch, your dreams, your lust Yeah I'm a dreamer for the times I am the naked king, my art is wandering I'm a dreamer for the times
