A/N: Umm... So, giant metaphor, guys! Be warned, it might not make any sense at all.


I paint my walls in black
And peroxide bleach
Cannot comprehend
The velocity of speech
The window casts it's light
On the puckerings that thrive
All the ulcers and the creases
In the corners of my mind

I am Alpha
And Omega
Maniac in words
The first to bid farewell
And a rioteer of sorts
I'll pay my dues in Limbo
-In Purgatory dwell-
Or let my muses drag me, baby,
Straight back down to Hell

So hushabye thou littlest
Sleep upon my arm
Trust me in my darkest
And I shall do no harm
From me you might be safe
But kinship is a curse
And soon you will be seeing
The back-booth of a hearse

I am Alpha
And Omega
Maniac in words
The first to bid farewell
And a rioteer of sorts
I'll pay my dues in Limbo
-In Purgatory dwell-
Or let my muses drag me, baby,
Straight back down to Hell

This is our bitter end
For now we must depart
Through turmoil, blood and fluid, my friend
But our paths will go apart

With brand new eyes you'll see
That plus and plus repel
A minor needs a major, and aye,
Thus we fell

I am Alpha
And Omega
Maniac in words
The first to bid farewell
And a rioteer of sorts
I'll pay my dues in Limbo
-In Purgatory dwell-
Or let my muses drag me, baby,
Straight back down to Hell
