lyrics

This stain in my velvet will never come out
The stench will remain forever and ever
I've tried everything and still it stays
I'll never be rid of the smell of vanity
I'll never escape the charge of hypocrisy
I'll never be able to demonstrate empathy
Never leave this selfish ego behind
This cowardice behind

I'll never feel quite at home
Nor complete or free or successful

I wish that I could go back and change the past
But I can't be sure that then I'd learn to be a better person

This stain in my velvet will never come out
The stench will remain forever and ever
I've tried everything and still it stays
I'll never be rid of the smell of vanity
I'll never escape the charge of hypocrisy
I'll never be able to demonstrate empathy
Never leave this selfish ego behind
This cowardice behind

At the precipice I stand, and I see the frozen sea
The lone organ-man from the dark snowy woods
I wouldn't have it any other way
May the world perish in ice
Frost is better than fire
