Claret
Alien Hand Syndrome

I was the first to appear,

I´ll be the last one to leave

I came with my boots on but I´ll

Walk off on bare feet


And the mob in my head sings of eternal wars

and mad things that they´ve seen

Of the struggle of souls and the wonders of earth

and that the brown succeeds the green


And how the true grace of love only shows when you miss it


I´m ripping the flesh off my body

And I´ll pile it up in front of you oh ohhh ohhh

Everything I say is pointless

And nothing ever bears the truth oh ohhhh ohhhh


The bright fluctine days and

The calm benzo nights

The shivering lows

And the maniac highs


And the blessings of birth and the menace of death

And the blank in between

All the waste of ideas

And this permanent state of questioning that I´m in


Do the things that I desire still turn to stone when I touch them?


This all´s just a fucking pathetic

Last effort to recover youth oh ohhhh oh

Everything I do is filthy

and nothing ever bears the truth oh ohhhh ohhhh


Sweet claret hell, sweet claret hell

What was it that shook me that I couldnt tell?

Sweet claret hell, sweet claret hell

Can the poor only buy what the wealthy want to sell?


The closer I get to my real self

The further I vanish from you

Everything in here is worthless

And nothing embodies the truth ohhhh ohhhh


Still the cells in my blood

Fuel the mess in my skull

And there´s nothing that ever will change


Nor the wrongs

Nor the rights

Nor the spaces and times

Nor the people I´ve met and forgot


Let this shell that I´ve made

Be my home till the end

Let me repent and abandon sin


Till the water I´ve drunk

turns to wine in my heart,

and by dawn I´ll be gone with the wind ...
