The genius sunburst finish disappears
In the final glow
The seed is sown the flowers grow
Nirvana is so very far away
A million miles of broken glass
A million faces from behind
Straight between the eyes
Essence
When inspiration rears it's ugly head
Electric shame electric shades
The pieces lying in a waste of shame
The course is clear to ride the nightmare out
The fountainhead is running out
Essence is laid bare
The definitions of an empty world
The problem’s down to you my friend
Probably but never quite the same
The private dream screens melt away
The screaming starts today
