The Company Kept - Charlie Lyrics
Peering out of piercing eyesHe tells a tale of catonic demiseYou are every one of usAnd so much more than everything he criesAnd innocence is relative toPermanence you'll never live to seeSo make your last obsessions andPrepare your last confessions, follow meVampires and acrobats, computers and subway rats areRipping through my headAnd cocaine girls write melodies of glorious fidelities, I dreadShe says it as she's ripping me to shreds.Madness makes a man become a martyr in the war for black and whiteAnd solitary torture builds a character of unrelenting frightSo he lashes 'gainst the masses carrying a flag of burning doubtBillows over bridges till the cities and the villages wash outVampires and acrobats, computers and subway rats areRipping through my headAnd cocaine girls write melodies of glorious fidelities, I dreadShe says it as she's ripping me to shreds.Vampires and acrobats, computers and subway rats areRipping through my headAnd cocaine girls write melodies of glorious fidelities, I dreadShe says it as she's ripping me to shreds.
