Prince Of Mars - Kitchens Of Distinction

Hide him away from the backhand of angry

He’ll sit quietly as the fizzyness flows around

Never seen wars before, never been to a party

He says «they laugh like balloons, they dance like baboons

They’re so different when it’s dark»

Hiding away as the noise gets louder

Watching the people loose in the corridor

Too many questions

He can’t stay long, this is not his world

«Why are their lips even redder than

The bad one in Snow White

Why do they shout so, are they in pain

I don’t understand

Can’t stay much longer, I must tame my fox

So this is what goes on when you grow old.»

Hiding away in memory now sits my Prince laughing

He had to go, we all have to go, there’s too much I didn’t ask

Like «what happens when you know the answer

But they’re so used to you being wrong?

And why this cover when caught inside

We’re heavy hearted, too close to the knives

Our hearts are closing like hammer horror walls

Fingermarked skin, hurt to the bone

We don’t understand

Oh, my Prince, answer please

I’ll get the pencils

We’ll draw ourselves a new world.»
