O, Give me pleasure
I want to be more than one more lost man 
I sing of my poor soul 
Needing to share 
A wealth of worldly treasures
I cherish you
In those cold moments 
I will forever
I hope you always know 
O give me pleasure 
Give me knowledge of the world 
Don't want to know everything 
Just yearning to comprehend 
The world out there is blurry to my eyes 
How does one come to know?
The women out there are beautiful 
I drift I dream I scheme 
I let go of love and then I recieve 
My language informs me it is my measure 
And my restraint I must use to hold on 
Control 
My heart moves, loves 
My soul swoons 
I take it in
I indulge too much in these feelings 
It would be that I was guilt itself 
And my good judgement I surrender 
To such a thing as beauty 
In tears 
I make of her a goddess 
O I know there is more to life
But I want the wispy rose colored dream 
Of loving comfort in the midst of night 
The sharing of bodies and hearts and souls 
And flowers 
I stay alone I hide in my self worth's daily submission 
Wanting often to be somebody else
Drink to a better tomorrow 
In some other place
In some other fantasy 
Some other reality 
But how can anything be other than what it is?
And now my brain tells me to wake up 
I don't know what's going on up there
I have scars which I call injuries 
I exaggerate and indulge in my own worries
I am too oft' unkind
Come in through the gates of my kingship 
I welcome you with heart 
O, life, give me pleasure
O let the world go by me
Let those criminal deeds occur 
I cannot stop them with my heart or my hand 
Let my delights be holy
And not these great songs of sordid pleasure 
I have witnessed yet 
Ether dreams 
Sing of her love and sunbeams 
Like a celestial siren 
In a mind of fog that in the night dreams 
I have not been worthy to this all, myself 
I have not been worthy to myself
Sensitive to the messages the world sends me 
In my love for her I will be saved

On.
