Citadel
The sun has risen
The air is still
The school is set
On the ruins of a ring
An iron fence
These gates of steel
Opening once every hour
Just to keep us in
The sun has set
Yet there he sits
Not entered class
For days, nor weeks
Emotions buried
Remaining stiff
For some he would die
But for her he would kill
When the doors of the city have been closed
In the dead of night
The citadel is glowing in smoke
On a full moon night
Quote me on something
I do not remember saying
I do not recall half of anything I did
On occasions I was a fool
Never made a fool of you
Untrue
As souvenirs are fading
So do memories of you
After a decade of feeling jailed
I slowly start to realize
That I have never been freer
Than for this seven-year span
I forced my way into the place
About as often as I di
Jump over that fence
Aiming for the open sea
When the doors of the city has been closed
In the dead of night
The citadel is glowing in smoke
On a full moon night
Quote me on something
I do not remember saying
I do not recall half of anything I did
On occasions I was a fool
But never never never never made a fool of you
I have been going in circles
Back to where I have been
Loops are getting smaller
So I am about to spin
Ten years have passed
I sure have grown
I now use the sink
Because the throne is too low
That was 2-007
End of middle high
Hot as Nero's Rome
Or as Shelley's heart
As I feel like I am hitting
An all-time low
Pictures do not fade
But superimpose
I have been hard on the smokes
Heavy on the drinks
Now my face has swollen
My mind is on the blink
As nice as it looks
I am afraid It has been
One scripted simulacre
Of Human Comedy
Look at me and my kin
The genes are strong
I have my daddy's liver
My father's lungs
The outro is near
My time is now
I am twenty-nine
And I don't want to die
The air is still
The school is set
On the ruins of a ring
An iron fence
These gates of steel
Opening once every hour
Just to keep us in
The sun has set
Yet there he sits
Not entered class
For days, nor weeks
Emotions buried
Remaining stiff
For some he would die
But for her he would kill
When the doors of the city have been closed
In the dead of night
The citadel is glowing in smoke
On a full moon night
Quote me on something
I do not remember saying
I do not recall half of anything I did
On occasions I was a fool
Never made a fool of you
Untrue
As souvenirs are fading
So do memories of you
After a decade of feeling jailed
I slowly start to realize
That I have never been freer
Than for this seven-year span
I forced my way into the place
About as often as I di
Jump over that fence
Aiming for the open sea
When the doors of the city has been closed
In the dead of night
The citadel is glowing in smoke
On a full moon night
Quote me on something

On occasions I was a fool
But never never never never made a fool of you

My time is now
I am twenty-nine
And I don't want to die
