It begins with a couple from hell Met them outside the hotel Asked if I could help them out I said maybe with a lot of doubt He said: Mount my wife, for this I yearn I'll help myself while I watch and learn Those words made my stomach turn Holding to its contents my concern I took refuge in my glass The words still ring will they ever pass I can't take it any more Can't go back to before These images exist In my mind I resist I can't go back to the way it was I can't go back to the past Another tale, with a girl so blind Didn't see I was only polite Wanted to know if she looked fine Told her "for your age? Sure, all right" She took this as sexual hint Surprising me like a gust of wind Hoping to woe me into her bed Had to tell her to drop dead I take refuge in my glass Because your words are like poisonous gas I can't take it any more Can't go back to before These images exist In my mind I resist I can't go back to the way it was I can't go back to the past Traumas, terrifying dreams, no more sleep Every night I lie awake and weep These images embedded very deep My sanity is what I try to keep You speak of fantasy and epic times You don't see the hate in my eyes You're the vermin of the night Yet you think you're all right You've crossed the thin white line The words still ring in my mind And even with no lights You're such an ugly sight And she asks: can you make a circle out of my star I can't take it any more Can't go back to before These images exist In my mind I resist I can't go back to the way it was I can't go back to the past
