The Tear Garden - Judgement Hour lyrics

I've got my eyes fixed on your picture This finger's pressing mute Would you shut up for a moment? I need to see the future Seems it's looking dim I tried to shake you off But still you cling I never wear your ring The green stain's creeping down my finger Wasn't there a thing that I did that gave you pleasure? Wasn't there a thing that I did that made you laugh? And the hangman shakes his head Turns the hour gla** and counts Former wives, former lives line up Then denounce me People, it's my party People, it's my house It's me who makes the rules If you cannot stand the heat Leave your grudges in the hall It's me who makes the rules I'm head of this table All of you are mere projections If I gave you false impressions Then that's just the way I am What I say, what I think Are two entirely different things That's just the way I am We should never say forever Even when it's what we feel It's what I feel, it's what I fear It's what you hear And time stands still Until tomorrow when I'm gone But you keep clinging on Could that be "forever"? People, it's my party People, it's my house It's me who makes the rules If you cannot stand the heat Leave your grudges in the hall It's me who makes the rules We meet again my princess Let's get it right this time Let's make a toast We could exorcise the ghosts
