When you forgave me The weight finally settled in Forgiveness stole away rage God, God, God Not again What have I done this time The dog asks After it bit another gentle hand If only you knew The first hand And the weight it carried While it swung If for pity or love You stay Oh, how tired you will grow Carrying out the sentence For a crime you didn't commit
