Are You Loathsome Tonight?

Lots of ins and outs
One has one's doubts about one's doubts
One forgets the specific purpose of the mission
One forgets to get permission at all

Ugly words are exchanged at a charity event
"You don't even have a tenth of your rent"
People are run over by ambulances
You attack those with the lowest of defenses

Your pulse is slow
Your self esteem is wavering
Everything that's low is
Everything that you've been savouring

Then you look in thе mirror
And do you change your mind?
Does the fеar breed fear?
Are you loathsome tonight?

Are you loathsome tonight?
Are you loathsome tonight?
Are you loathsome tonight?

Starstruck at the beating heart
Of another bad occasion
I can't ignore and I can't parse
The slow disintegration

Savoy truffles
Finely bake minds
Media kerfuffles
Are you loathsome tonight?

The outside is dim
The silhouettes are slithering
Everything you loved is grown
Hidebound and withering

Did you fight out of passion
Or was it just obligation?
Believe me I know
How to vouchsafe a nation

Lots of incidents
Lots of situation
One has its doubts
About various vacations

Time grows short
And time is tight
One last look
Are you loathsome tonight?

Are you loathsome tonight?
Are you loathsome tonight?
Are you loathsome tonight?
Are you loathsome tonight?
