Once I was someone looking for someone with nothing inside Something I faced now the whole thing's erased It's an old game I tried Through a crowd of people staring Not a face in fifty caring now And yet I still continue to flow through a world I don't know I hear the music of my life Lips softly stalling the infant is calling let nobody hear Checking my face to select the right places For wrinkles of fear We see the Christ child gently sleeping Mad Madonna softly weeping now And yet I still continue to flow through a world I don't know I look at you and you look back at me And we stare at each other in complete apathy I'm so sad Evening is poor but the morning's all right If you stay pressed to me while the sun touches night I'll be glad Something of no one's inherent in slow ones The deft matricide You flee to the East on the wings of the Beast For a new place to hide Life is only matter crumbling Souls and moral conscience tumbling Down And yet I still continue to flow through a world I don't know I hear the music of my life
