I love people like they’re gods.
With an offering at my side,
What do you want me to do while I am begging,
And you give me silent air?
When I want breathes, I stay home
And hold my sins in my lungs,
And count the seconds I am alive with dragged nails on skin.
This is why I can’t keep them long enough to draw blood.
I go to church for screams.
I go to let my heart beat in the hands of the Father.
Run me ragged, I want to have a use again.
Take my spirit, my soul and have me wonder if it’s one and the same.
To have him hold my body down and rip the sin out
If some should stay, I’d rather you leave me nothing.
Why am I a bug trapped to this Holy Bible?
Dust particles floating like flies,
Maybe this time you’ll make a sound.
And call for me.
Open the gates and I could be starving
And I could be gone to the world
And I’ll still tell you I miss you and I love you forever
Because people have left so much, the only word I know is stay
And they have so much left to say, the only word they know is sorry.
