the beggar of dreams

starving and helpless
gazed by the blessed blind
held at gunpoint, torn between choices
watch me waste away and ravenous

i need only your mercy
don't let these frustrations consume me
battle these ghosts and monsters
may it be dreams or trances

exchanging blows almost impossible
with the only thing your holding to
dear neurotic machine
help us save us

all the cash gone
how will I have you Paul
i can't sing with you now
the sparrows had flown

guardian have you received the SOS
aid me circulate this scheme
you're the only thing I need
the only being I dream

envelope me with your shadow
i'll have you and I'll taste you
betray me
the future's in vague.

-- me the dumpee
