Why on earth did they decide
to feast on your rotten liver tonight
we all know from previous alcohol experience
about the acid taste of the remains of indifference

What made them believe
your shaky heart wanted to leave
this shaken world behind?
where on earth did they take your classic mind.

Your tongue is dry
your breath is absent
the smell of decay is in the air
and in all the shiny gold you wear

The children are gathering at the gate
to stare at the latest victim of love and hate
they cannot turn their eyes from a body
so beautifully naked and unnnaturaly blue.

Acid is leaking
from your plastic lips
a chalk mark is pointing
between your flattened hips

You can read the screaming question
the last silent cry of mourning
forming in your broken mother's eyes
and you're the one who holds the answer
so stop drooling acid and

have the decency to tell her
why on earth you had to die tonight
and why on earth you had to
make it look like suicide.
