Selfish Man

I don’t eat I just devour, everyone in every hour All is me, is all I need and that’s all that I care Propelled through all this madness, by your beauty and my sadness I’ll never change or rearrange, till I’ve finished what I’ve started. And life leads me here It shows me, I have […]


Life In A Tenement Square

Well I kissed the day, I was on my way From those cold gray blocks of stone For seventeen years of squalor filled tears A time now with innocence lost As the sun split the room With its rays filled with gloom Turnin’ all hope to despair And the only thing left Was to flee […]


Salty Dog

I’ll wait for you till I turn blue There’s nothin’ more a man can do Don’t get your bollocks in a twist Settle down, don’t take a fit Ya drank with demons straight form Hell They almost nearly won as well Ya wiped the floor with victory Then puked until you fell asleep Blackened was […]

Devil's Dance Floor

Her breath began to speak As she stood right in front of me The colour of her eyes Were the colour of insanity Crushed beneath her wave Like a ship, I could not reach her shore We’re all just dancers on the Devil’s Dance Floor Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o […]
