It
couldn't be more fun.
 Sharp toys.
 The excitement of pain
 primal thrill
 like an amusement park ride.
Children, swallowed 
 by the gravity of a black hole
 called Forgetfulness
 sing and cry, bleeding.
 Pretending to be a dancer.
 Pretending to be an audience.
 Pretending to be a murderer.
 Pretending to be innocent
 all in the same dream
 Children snooze on railroad tracks
 heart beats like drums. Loud
as thunder.
 It could wake the dead but it
doesn't.
 Here it comes. (choo choo)
 I seen the sun today.
 Just a bit dimmer.
 Fading.
 Glory to the world
 and blessings to the sun.
 These too will die one day...
 and I'll have had my fun
 and put away my sharp toys
 and nuclear clay 
 and leave Asbestos playland
 to the dreamers.
 (Have fun)
