|
I know you must know it now |
|
My warnings have stoned |
|
My fingers are numb around |
|
Your warm, pulsing throat |
|
And I whispered, "My wife," |
|
She opened her pale eyes |
|
She smiled, so I smiled |
|
And I got what I deserved |
|
This house was my flowered heart |
|
But my petals have fallen |
|
Do you love him, tell me now, |
|
Or I'll show you my scars |
|
And you will bow boldly |
|
And tell me you're sorry |
|
But you're hardly moving |
|
Wake up and give me what I know I deserve |
|
The farmer's wife heard it from the street down below |
|
And later fully recalled each harrowing note |
|
And she would cry |
|
"Holy Spirit has cursed me." |
|
And for this my ending sooner than I deserve" |
|
The children weren't lucky to have only used ears |
|
As I stood on top of him looking down, |
|
I felt the fear in their skin as they plead, |
|
"Father, did you kill our leader? |
|
Our rock and great teacher? |
|
What did he deserve?" |
|
And I replied, |
|
"No, killed my leeches. |
|
And the wound that is ? is. |
|
I hope you can see it |
|
for what I deserve." |
|
The judge would ask, "Why again, was it him and not her?" |
|
The only thing I could think was, "To settle my nerves." |
|
Try killing my leeches for sucking me speechless |
|
And abandoning secrets and trust all the same |
|
So I deserve what I deserve |
|
So I deserve what I deserve |
|
Ooooh |
|
Ooooh |
|
Ooooh |
|
Ooooh |
