If I wanted the freedom to choose. I think I’d be hard pressed to get myself undressed and show my naked body to you. That isn’t what I wanted at all. Are the scorched earth and trees that some crazy man sees, enough to convince of me a fall? Lip service makes me feel such a rush. Like my hands and my knees can do much to please, but **** if it don’t make me blush. Savior? Where are you? I’m waiting NOW! While science betrays you and history flays you. But we keep tipping the sa- cred cow. Punishment seems so unbecome- ing. If only I’d lived then, I’d have died for my own sin and kept you around for loving. I mean, holy **** Don’t we need It. We’re lost in the forest, our reason is porous, and our culture is a pit. None of this “living” makes any sense. The cards that I’m holding make me think about folding, cause already I’ve tried to repent.

I Forgive You
