Malefic Dowery

Love is not a debtor's prison

You don't have to serve a sentence

To pay back what you've been given

Now I live in fear of your schizophrenic genius

It's a tempestuous despot that I can't seem to propitiate

Now I feel you're provoking me with your fidelity

But your loyalty and affections

Are somehow a vulpine act of hostility

Now we're a bore we're afternoon TV

This thing our minds are screaming to defy

How can I bury this rebellion

While proving that I'm still you know your rock 'n' roll ally

Once more I turn to my crotch for counsel

And it won't disappoint me I know

It's the shadow cast by what's looming in the profane

And it's how that engenders fear

I was dreaming of the hunt

You clapped your hands sharply twice to wake me up

Oh darkness was gripping the sky

I knew I could still be your rock 'n' roll ally
