I am in love with the waking

It is cold but I ain't mistaking

Proud like Mary to be here again

To be here now with my very best friend

Merry go round I'm in love with the waking



And when I disappear

Into the night and out of the fear

Hunting with sword and spear

I am king Lear

Having a love affair

With myself



I rule if you follow

I spit if you swallow



You've been dealt the cards but there's nothing at stake

What is it worth when your limbs begin to shake

King of black hearts in the parliament

A skinny white boy for president

Triumph at hand but still nothing at stake
