An inhospitable truth I have
An inhospitable truth I have
To carry throughout my life
That must stay buried in my heart
What a terrible truth!
It dances on my tongue
When I feel somebody knows.
On the scale of history it nags;
On a bone it gnaws.
Its the shadow that follows
My genetic path incurably.
It will follow me into death
And be the Ghost beside me.

On a bone it gnaws.
Its the shadow that follows
My genetic path incurably.
It will follow me into death
And be the Ghost beside me.
