Silly little wishes, Fantasies and dreams, Who but me to make them true? Or so that way it seems, Twice a day, a minute spent, Begging my soul's master, Oh I could count a thousand prayers, Without a single answer, Kneeling down on tender knees, Beneath the mercy of a rope, Wishful truth may set me free, But the cruelest lie is hope, So of these vacant, mystic promises, I've grown weary and suspicious, If I am God then God is dead, And so are all my wishes.
