Devoted like a fanatic to God
Every sin is a punishment you take upon your heart
And in the bright, desolate heaven of your soul
You see the light, see the light, see the light

Prostrate before the velvet feet of kings
You kissed the ground and you gave away your dreams
And in the mindless, military love to be controlled
You see the light, see the light, see the light

You’re a fool, you’re a jester in the court of my contempt
Waste your days making wages that will always be unspent
And with the lusty mirth of your harlequin black eyes
You see the light, see the light, see the light
