Queen of the Senseless Age 2

ill-advised and ruined

When you were young

don’t you know

‘Brightest flame burns quickest’



can’t sieve the good from the bad

the evil from the evil

A child born out of nothing

A child of wedlock



unlock secrets of the child

A child of the wild

on the heels of tough love

and law



Why do you live this way?



vacant, cheap motels

noisy bars. sleazy Willy

do your deal

cut your throat



feel the needle in your hand

feel the needle in your heart



you have heard it many times  

a father’s preaching

screeching sounds on a gramophone

more than just times have changed



you have changed

the lives of others

but your life

is the same, insane



the glamour is gone

not just the magazines

everything you ever were

ebbed away…
