No Strange Delight

So there goes your life

Disappeared from ever loving friends

And now a slave to obsession

Your strange delight

You lie awake

How your senses ache

Shaking off the night

Is there more strange delight?

There goes your self

In the clear forever out of line

And there you'll stay through obsession

Your strange delight

Can't bear this heat

You poor heart skips a beat

Tearing off the years

To when you really cared

So where's your soul?

In the field where every story ends

And then how plain your obsession

Your strange delight

So this is hell

Not so hard to tell

Better men than I

Have tried your strange delight

Is there no strange delight?
