Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it.

Yes, great analogy.
Genius requires some element of crazy. Can’t take the rough without the smooth.
Somewhere on a tiny planet
crawl some ants called the human race
Lost in time
Lost in space
And meaning
and his Musical Career
