Ipsissimus

I know you
Never one to follow any rules
Yeah, I was your fool
When all the world seemed strange and new
You gave me forgeries
It took me far too long to see
That's praise of a kind
Ask the dead, they only want to live again

Ipsissimus

Alone with illusions
From the lotus we lived in confusion
With nothing to lose
My Severin and devil's muse
Forgotten nepenthe
We've gone too far now, haven't we?
Too late to rewind
Ask the dead, they only want to live again

Ipsissimus

So very tired
I've offered you all that I can
Yet we go 'round and 'round again
I hear your laughter as I'm kicking in the sand
Your holy mountain's a dead end
