...AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER Nov. 3/85 Karl Rigelhof

Fondly fondling flesh
Memory mapping (through) (the) mess/h
Trust put/taken to the test
Lost/broken like all the rest

You take what you want
(You) leav(ing) no stone unturned
You (re)g(r)et what you need
You cannot satisfy your greed

Groping for the nectar of the gods
Moping more than a(ny) normal/matrimonial man/
Hoping for (one more)/another chance
Tears falling like rain
Fears crawling with/from (the) pain

And they lived happily ever after
Or so the story goes
Between the joy and the laughter
Lies a place they'll never know
(Where (the) evil still grows)
(And the stars (they) do not glow/show)

And they lived happily ever after
Or so the story went
In the shadow of the storm caster
The wind howls its lament/dement
(It's) twisted, gnarled, and bent
(It's) ravaged, raped/raged, and rent

And they lived happily ever after
Or/and so/now the story ends
Within the final chapter
They/we finally make amends
And (we) save/(not waste) the love we spend
Forever to be friends
