I did not understand
The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao
I did not understand then
But I understand now
I thought I understood
Thou shalt not ****
But your tongue is driving me from God
Have you sinned against his will?
I do not understand
The love of life eternal destroys life temporal
In this life we sin to save ourselves
Yet the lamb rose from human betrayal
I will never understand
The weakness of the human mind
A wall of fear surrounding what God made infinite
Made of stone to judge mankind
I want to understand
So I walk alone searching the desert sand slowly
Is it obedience to man I will find
Or the burning conscience of what is holy?
