Listen everyone to the story I tell
About a man and his personal hell
His body now just a recessed shell
Will it be him again oh only time will tell
Hollow eyes leading to a broken soul
Hollow fears that leave nowhere to go
A wrinkle in time as the days go slow
Can you understand him I don't know
Down the hatch
End the show
Final curtain call
Here nevermore
The baby came it seemed all right
Inescapably He dims down the lights
Hiding himself among more vile sights
Makes his own shortcomings seem so slight
Into his shell he begins a sordid retreat
The future doesn't exit and the present is bleak
Inside his palm he hold something to eat
In his hand stares back a cold sweating drink
Down the hatch
End the show
Final curtain call
Here nevermore
