merrick’s waltz.
The curtains were drawn today
They said it was for the best
The center of selfish plans
Not animal but a man
And all I ever wanted was love
But it pays not to
Still sleeping standing up
You put light in my tunnel
Censored cut off from the rest
They said it was for the best
But this is the last time
I will sleep it off
I will be human tonight
spiegelman.
oh mother
the figures on your arm
recall a date and time
of when you were harmed
oh mother
that place will forget you
but you will never forget it
you will never forget it
