Room 17 on the road between Cincinnati and Imwas
Two feeble minds, who their mother despised, patrol their bleak horizons
They're looking for meaning in shallow mirrors
Can a God be found in such self-regard?
James Donald and James David find themselves in finance
The low morals of Hamel and Bowman got fat off the the taste mediocrity provides
And up jumps Sulfurous Pete, a wax German Nazgûl in the blood of the innocent steeped
Combine, deform, convert, repeat, initialize and drop the periods, please
Teal-skinned Scratch says: Transform for appearances
A link of the chain, manifest in politics
And I'll tell you my vision
Just don't ask where my boyfriends go
Drop to your knees, whey-faced boy and drink deep
'Cause the old and the poor, the stranger and the meek gotta go
Close all the gates to them
Adding salt to wine to make blood is fine
Adding spite to flesh to make bread is fine and good
Adding salt to wine to make blood is fine
Adding spite to flesh to make bread is fine and good
Adding salt to wine to make blood is fine
Adding spite to flesh to make bread is fine and good
So good
Room 18 on the road between Middletown and Damascus
A floating head fearing death gestures towards prayer
Its mind is bent on technicalities
If deeds and words are your worth, perhaps conversion failed?
If it's deeds and words, it's fire in this world or the next
It's fire
If it's deeds and words, it's fire in this world or the next
It's fire
