I Want to Vanish

I want to vanish
This is my fondest wish
To go where I cannot be captured
Laid on a decorated dish
Even in splendor, this curious fate
Is more than I care to surrender
Now, it's too lateWhether in wonder or indecent haste
You arrange the mirrors and the spools
To snare the rare and precious jewels
That were only made of pasteIf you should stumble upon my last remark
I'm crying in the wilderness
I'm trying my best to make it dark
How can I tell you I'm rarer than most
I'm certain as a lost dog
Pondering a sign postWhether in wonder or indecent haste
You arrange the mirrors and the spools
To snare the rare and precious jewels
That were only made of paste
