That's about it accept for some background stuff you can
figure out or improvise yourself.
 
-Structure-
 
[Rhy Fig 1 (1x)]
[Rhy Fig 2 (2x) & Fig 1 (1x)]
[Rhy Fig 3 (4x)]
Trough the searching lights that weave and dart
Comes the stranger that cares not for your heart
The pain of living life this way
Must take its toll on you some day
 
[Rhy Fig 2 (4x) & Fig 1 (2x)]
Your jaded eyes can see
Embarrassment or harm
The frail skin that bleeds
Emotionally on guard
All lowest forms of life
Are pounding you inside
Your hollow cold display
Your tired masquerade
 
[Rhy Fig 3 (4x)]
Let the image that you present entice
Unlike the mirror that shows the strains of vice
This act of contact your decay
While willing souls will more that pay.
 
[Rhy Fig 2 (4x) & Fig 1 (2x)]
Your jaded eyes can see
Embarrassment or harm
The frail skin that bleeds
Emotionally on guard
All lowest forms of life
Are pounding you inside
Your hollow cold display
Your tired masquerade
[Rhy Fig 3 (Until End)]
