<><><>

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee. Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong I will make it all up to thee.
