I Will Be My Own
I know this place
There is murmur
Of a specter
Here
A saint and a liar
Dance together
Before God
I know their face
One says
“I tell you the truth
I cannot promise
The truth. I am
No saint”
The other smiles
“I tell you the truth
I am a liar
And will lie”
I know this place
I will be my own deception
Thank you both
I will be my own
Sooner would I march
Headstrong
Into the dark
To be lost
And know the darkness
In truth
And so I appeal to the specter
And I drown the murmur
The saint and the liar
Be ******
I know this place
I know
