The Tear Garden - Judgement Hour

Ive got my eyes fixed on your picture.
This fingers pressing mute.
Would you shut up for a moment,
I need to see the future?
Seems its looking dim.
I tried to shake you off but still you cling.
I never wear your ring.
The green stains creeping down my finger.
Wasnt there a thing that I did that gave you pleasure?
Wasnt there a thing that I did that made you laugh?
And the hangman shakes his head,
turns the hour glass and counts former wives...
Former lives line up, then denounce me.
People its my party.
People its my house.
Its me who makes the rules.
If you cannot stand the heat,
leave your grudges in the hall.
Its me who makes the rules.
Im head of this table
all of you are mere projections.
If I gave you false impressions then thats just the way I am:
what I say what I think are two entirely diferent things...
Thats just the way I am.
We should never say forever even when its what we feel.
Its what I feel,
its what I fear,
its what you hear and time stands still until tomorrow when Im gone.
But you keep clinging on.
Could that be forever?
We meet again my princess,
lets get it right this time.
Lets make a toast...
We could exorcise the ghosts...
