Lyrics for The October Man

I am the october man, I dream of many things, this is my desire... This melancholia, this lure of golden wings, isolation... I am the october man, I live for no-one, this is my damnation... I dream of many things, the rape of angels, transformation... This odour of desire, these fumes of funeral fire, this is my celebration. I am the october man, I dream of many things, this is my desire...
