Arcturus Ad Absurdum

This dead orchestra

play on instruments

strung with the fibres

of my mind

And skeletons dance

they have no voice

and no complaint

But I am still flesh

and will not serve

you vampire fools

bringing you life

by invoking dead

I'm tired of telling stories

with this ghostvoice of mine

so you can say you don't

believe in ghosts

You drink me animal

wasted on my madness

leaving me blank and empty

But tonight

I'm Houdini

Gonna kill my shadow

penetrate your sanctum

See your loss

through your eyes

and laugh as two

you not knowing why

and wanting to die
