Soar on the wings of youth
Let light shine through imperfect skin
Dance in the neon night
For dawn is coming

Laugh and drink and hold close
The liars like yourself
Grasp at all the sins you can
For dawn is coming

Destroy your morals and lower your standards
Roll in the putrid squalor
Enjoy your drink- and drug-induced stupor
Until your wretchedness is exposed.

Dawn is quickly coming.
