I can only see the light, when it’s shone between my eyes
You can waste your time with subtlety, if you like, my muse.
I can only hear the words, if they’ve come from what I’ve spurned.
You can tell me what I need to hear, when the greed is earned.
I can only see the scars, when they glow beneath the stars.
You can jangle dice in front of me, if you like, my muse.
I can only read the news, if it correlates my view.
You can show me what I need to see, when the bars are burned.
I can only see the light
When I see you scream
I’m only in fine fettle when I vanish in a dream
when I’m called
I can only see the blight, when I’m trapped inside a fight.
You can aspirate and instigate, if you like, my muse.
I can only read bad cues, if you show me what I'll lose.
You can show me what I need to be, when the judge is turned.
I can only see the light
When I see you scream
I’m only in fine fettle when I vanish in a dream
when I’m called
