Intro :
Windows in a silent room sunlight burns the walls to black
Angles and dimensions melt while colors drip and pillows crack
Reflections of my memories like pictures pasted on a sheet
The ribbon film of separate frames l ying curled up at my feet
The film is just a snake design and the p hoto graphs are fading fast
These are not memories of mine I h ave no future no past
I've seen a thousand afternoons dissolve into the night
Like sugar crystals on a spoon they disappear from sight
G ray days from the c rispest morning to the w armest af ternoon in this r oom
And I like to draw the face I saw so long ago
My image in the mirror t ells the jagged lines w hich way to go
The black and white d escription of the s ole survivor o f the Holocaust
All the rest were lost
Do you see this paper face? It has no color or no mood
My eyes are ageless as am I. I need no sleep I need no food
I an a king but like a child the other children laugh at me
T ongues of fire wagging wild they dance around me merrily
I'll kill them all and if I fail I 'll kill whoever I can find
Then they'll beg me to be kind
My eyes have seen far more than eyes can ever tell
This planet plunged through mushroom fires of earthly hell
I know that my sweet J esus said that h e'd ret urn
But B abylon has f allen and the c ities burn
