Do you want to judge me or do you come to judge my art?

No, of course it's me you've come to try

You'd like me to be just a pretty face

Or a grinning bete noire

I'm neither, that's a problem for you

Did I notice the world gone mad around me?

Leni at the end of time

Who pays your bills and what do you do?

Leni at the end of time

The world around me has always been mad

Where have you been?

Did I know people were dying?

Do you even know people die?

What could I have done if I did?

In a world there is no luxury for this

Leni at the end of time

I followed my muse I followed nothing else

Leni at the end of time

I leave you so unsatisfied that I'm unrepentant and still alive

How I will outlive you all and how I outclass you all

Congratulate yourselves on what you would have done

But you never did, never had to try

To think, to choose to live, to die or what

Another charming movie actress

A B-movie villainess

No thank you, I do not want it

Talk to me when you give back your grants

Did I notice the world gone mad around me?

Leni at the end of time

I followed my muse I followed nothing else

Leni at the end of time
