It's just one night One day Out of many A brief siesta from the sunlight When darkness reigns One night Come let us rekindle this old flame While I conceal For that little while With well traveled guile My real mu-name True ambitions and past transgressions Just one night Here… I'll step one foot out of the gloom As you step partially out of the light And we'll rendezvous Surrounded by a romantic fog of Premeditated confusion A delightfully charming illusion While I explore my aspirations And you surrender your inhibitions Within a few hours Outside the glare of a truthful sunlight It's just... One night It's just one night One day Out of many A brief siesta from the sunlight When darkness holds sway One night Come quench your thirst Slake your hate While you attempt to stifle fate Interrupt its flow There it is your wilted rose Decorated in suave tones and faded, jaded, lovers prose You can't conquer it so… The ink isn't even dry on that fancy invite The bold seemingly alien fonts The ramifications of shortsighted spite Under the auspicious shadow of wrong and right It is just another day... In other words One night Hear the hounds baying The snakes crawling and hissing Scaly bats angrily screeching The dead and dying They've run out road here and there The ghost of shadows Touches them everywhere Young, old and older Every shade of envious schemer Screaming and hollering amongst The delightfully abject suffering As a gratified heart of ancient stone Wraps and rolls the unwilling home Oodles of passion on an acerbic plate Brimming with irony Regret if it survives, is too damn late As the spider adds another piece of cosmic string To an elaborate work of malevolent art Three points The purest colors in every part The ride rolls to a sudden reddish stop On the magnificent shores of a distant well And you're eye to eye With the battle crazed pride of hell Waist deep in undiluted Tar A moment of truth Realizing just how "set" you really are At the start of the end Once, twice, thrice You've lost again It's just one night One day out of many When the blackest black begins to Supersede the light Standing up to it all, every try and beyond We're the only ones Capable of breaking that bond Look there, a smiling feminine face Frozen in clay Every dog gets his day One Night Never forget the journey Or lose sight of the destination I am the malefic Versifier NecroWmancer One Night © 2004 Ahkenaton all rights reserved |
