I won’t feel right in this skin till I’m perfect
I’ll find no freedom from this heartbeat unless I’m dead
Affirmation is the gloss of true happiness
That is no easier real than said
Not even the wicked deserve eternal damnation
And my everlasting breath lies in dying
What troubles me now is Evil
But Evil was created in seven days
And a day in a thousand years isn’t why we’re here
These thoughts and pen on paper
Through years upon decades of summers
Here, in old hearts that disappear
Memories writ in sand shift and swell
And now you say this is the reason we are here?
You say ‘I will love you, but not this you,
And not like this’
This hello is just an insincere goodbye
You have four loves in your language
And insist that I must give my penance or I will die?
I say your god is this, Truth and Lie
Your god is Love, and he is Vengeance
Your god is One and he is All
But will he take the Fall?
