I sometimes wonder why I'm here Unable to find joy in what I have near It's clear I must fight for what I want out of life Yet I'm tired of poking the hive with a knife To eat honey at the expense of strife Fighting for life when none can survive
I need all these things to live Yet I'm empty handed when it's time to give I want help and compassion but it's not what I gave No matter how hard I try I can't forgive True judgement's concealed behind the grave My personal judgement makes me a knave I want my foes in hell but I want to be saved The hypocrite in me is stuck in a torrential rain Rotting and sick, I point finger and blame
I am told to be strong, I am told I will die I heard rumours of a place where fallen angels lie Where dead men groan and angry snakes hiss Will I go there if my life goes amiss? Or am I already saved as the protestants say Yet today my sun is gone and the clouds are grey
Each person's a star, suppose I'm the same Where fire of sin burns, I want out of this game I am obsessed with wanting to ***** out the flame Yet all is so vain, and there's nothing to gain Between life and death I'm stuck and torn Would it have been better to have never been born?
