[Verse 1]
G
 Windows in a silent room , sunlight burns the walls to black
Am
  Angles and dimensions melt while colors drip and pillows crack
Bm
  Reflections of my memories like pictures pasted on a sheet
Am                                   G
  The ribbon film of separate frames lying curled up at my feet


[Verse 2]
G                                        D/F#
 The film is just a snake design and the photographs are fading fast
F                                 G
 These are not memories of mine I have no future, no past
D
 I've seen a thousand afternoons dissolve into the night
D
 Like sugar crystals on a spoon they disappear from sight
Em7                A                       G        F#m     Em7        A
Gray days from the crispest morning to the warmest afternoon   in this room


[Verse 3]
D                                              C
 And I like to draw the face I saw so long ago
D                       C                      D
 My image in the mirror tells the jagged lines which way to go
Em7                   A                  G             F#m
  The black and white description of the sole survivor of the Holocaust
G
 All the rest were lost


[Verse 4]
G
 Do you see this paper face? It has no color or no mood
Am
  My eyes are ageless, as am I. I need no sleep, I need no food
Bm
  I am a king, but like a child the other children laugh at me
Am                           G
Tongues of fire, wagging wild they dance around me merrily


[Verse 5]
G                                 D/F#
 I'll kill them all and if I fail I'll kill whoever I can find
F
 Then they'll beg me to be kind
D
 My eyes have seen far more than eyes can ever tell
D
 This planet plunged through mushroom fires of earthly hell
Em7                     A               D      F#m
   I know that my sweet Jesus said that he'd return
    Em7         A              G      G7 D
But Babylon has fallen and the cities    burn
