i was a beautiful boy

and a gorgeous girl

i was the queen of the wolves

and the king of the birds

the witches they loved me

the hunters they hunt me

and my life was

the shortest way around

 

i was a head on two legs

a shadow of a swan

a reflection of dread

a bitter crusade

the cats showed me around

the birds led me the way

and my life was the shortest way around

 

hey ey ey

that‘s so much more than i am today

 

my back against the wall

a bubble on my neck

my flesh an empty shell

my mind stuck in a trap

the cats they found their way

but i just went astray

and the birds they drowned in sound

 

hey ey ey

i'm so much more than this today
