Not Gonna Be Canonized Any Time Soon-Full Stop-

I'd rather have piteous hands Than blood stained ones It may be a dismal conception But through that threshold stands No turning point in either direction. The piteous are often the poor While blood stained will throttle for more. It's a dismal world upon reflection So heaven's conception was to soften the poor But man set the bar for that thresholds redemption.
