A Symbol of Honesty

Let me cut the ********

My reason

Is I am here to haunt you

And if we are cutting ********

Tis’ the season

For me to want you

Want you the way you were born

Naked, and pure

Nameless, and sure

You may want to get to know my name

You can call me *******

And I’ll be your ecstasy, your ******

And the hero in

My flesh, my body my soul

Is your Jesus

Standing over the devil in a hole

I am the very reincarnation of your god

You should be able to tell

If this meaningless menacing life has taught you anything

You would see you are as well

But I didn’t come here to open eyes,

Or even mention that they are closed

Or even mention that your saviors are posed

Who knows

I could be wrong

And if you happen to be right

I have done nothing all along

I didn’t come to sing songs

I came

To leave

Forgotten like leaves

At the base of this tree

If you want more, I guess you will have to wait and see

But I highly doubt

You would wait for me
