Reconstrucdead

When the fever burns your brain
When your heart has got a name
And you long for generous days
You want a spring in your walk and a smile on your face.
Another day inside the pearl
You could have screamed; leaving this world
You laugh’n’joke without a care
And bear a depression you can see from the air.
Ride the tail of rhyme
Break the legs of time
— Snap it’s spine.
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes
At my feet there’s a plate I haven’t read.
Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead
A tambourine rings in my blood
The circus' rolling’n’the cage is locked.
So where’s the light — a match that flares
— The pot at the end of the rainbow’s where
Pick your nose as you pick your friends
Or spend a life in fear of the end
To tell a nodding shrink won’t help
— So I say to myself: Hey, get a hold on yourself!
Ride the tail of rhyme
Break the legs of time
— Snap it’s spine.
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes
At my feet there’s a plate I haven’t read.
Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead, reconstrucdead.
My eyes are blind My mind is numb
But my ears begin to hear — to hear the growing hum
Like a statue, jealous of the rush hour
I’m reconstrucdead like a monument, a monument to power
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
Standing high up as a tower now, but still the cracks will — yeah
The cracks will show
A lifetime of frustration — the things that I can’t get
Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead
Reconstrucdead Reconstrucdead Reconstrucdead
