Fluorescent, flickering nightmare shades,
Subliminal, melancholy feelings.
Autumnal, winter light, a blazing summer night.
A small boy stalks the streets. He eyes the men he meets.
With a distasteful look he takes a hand
Resigned, to the pain and the small change.

The hunger drives him there, oblivious to a disgusted stare.
He plies his trade. the pimp gets paid.
In misery, a small boy gets laid.

With unseeing eyes, feelings laid bare,
A pseudo father figure keeps him warm.
Gone is the childhood of candyfloss and apples
Replaced, by a Disneyland of monsters and horrors.
His love is given for pain and small change
