| The night came to a sharp end |
| Something had to bend |
| The walls were closing in |
| And the air was getting thin |
|
| Take a breath and hold my hand |
| This you won't understand |
| For the good of me, there can't be you |
| I've got to do what I've got to do |
|
| I'll poison you |
| Until you're through |
| and I'll drink my wine |
| and sail away on the Helios |
|
| My mind is raw and vicious |
| I'll cancel all your wishes |
| The rain poures off my head |
| As I watch you in your bed |
|
| My crowded thoughts are mangled |
| My ideas are all strangled |
| I'm wrestling with my head |
| Who will wind up dead? |
|
| I'll poison you |
| Until you're through |
| and I'll drink my wine |
| and sail away on the Helios |
