|
There was gossip |
|
There were pleas |
|
There were rumors of meaning in meaningless things |
|
Widows readied their marital beds |
|
Litters of bastards gnawed at your breast |
|
The filthy are first to be showered in love |
|
The world's gone mad |
|
We dress them in furs as they travel the earth |
|
Saints wear rags |
|
You blessed our home |
|
We took you in |
|
But you had come to the place where the plague had been |
|
It burrowed into your graces and airs |
|
It took your queen |
|
It hawked your wares |
|
The stoic are first to be covered in shit and life goes on |
|
But when it don't anymore I will see you in hell |
|
Where I am god |
|
God damn it, |
|
Wait |
|
They don't love you, like i do |
|
But I don't know you, like them |
|
They don't love you, like I do |
|
They love you better, I know you best |
|
Every hostile deed is your death |
|
It's not mine |
