Stigma

Is that like me
the last frustration you have saved
Is that like me
the degeneration of the brave
Is that like me
to treat my brother as a salve
Is that like me
the final reason to go away

Is that like me
to choose your heros and then decide
to shoot them down
and hold exhibits on their pyre
Is that like me
am I the cloth that wipes your smile
Is that me
or is it the images on your trial

Do you know the place I go to when the beatings arrive
Do you know the strengh I call on when they scream "crucify"
Do you need another reason to belittle my love
The Stigma you cast is really not enough

Is that like me
to put illusion in my veins
and shoot it down
before the Icons you portray
Is that like me
Another victim of decay
This room´s so cold
You kissed me twice and then betrayed

my only wish
To hold you near me in the night
Oh is that like me
Would I harm the one I´d give my life
