INTERLUDE 1
Interlude 2:
In the streets of shame, where you've lost your dreams in the rain.
There's no signs of hope, the stems and seeds of the last of the
dope.
There's a glow of light, the Saint Jimmy is the spark in the night.
Bearing
gifts and trust, a fixture in the city of lust.
Pre chorus:
What the hell's your name? What's your pleasure, what is your
pain? Do you dream too much? Do you think what you need is a crutch?
Interlude 2 again:
In the crowd of pain Saint Jimmy comes without any shame. He says
we're f***ed up but we're not the same, and mom and dad are the
ones you can blame.
Prechorus again:
Jimmy died today. He blew his brains out into the bay. In the state
of mind,
Verse 3:
It's my own private suicide
