walk this path obscure and lonely
haunted by ill angels only
just like Bitter Lennon told me
they say it runs in the family
a little seed so deep inside
and I’m a gifted gardener
the evil tree in blossom wild
in the big black shadow
of paramountain
that wall of vengeance
in black out conditions
finish that mission
find that revenge
last chapter written
hothouse burning
down to the ground
no survivors
to be found
the dream management they sent
for the conqueror worm
to eat at my brain
thrive on forbidden fruits
keeping me caged and sane
welcome home to the realm of sanity
crucified by the fear of falling
falling free
The song Bitter Lennon was first released in extended version by Israelvis on the album Half Past Heaven in 1991. The song was re-recorded and released as a 7” yellow-vinyl single in 1992, and finally appeared on the mini-album We Only Live Twice later the same year.
