Apples and Oranges

hello today, ready for another shameful day
sit with me, lets talk, what should we change
the cats are fighting again
i wouldn't separate them

bring me back my flower
maybe i can be happy
please don't bring me weeds
i get no pleasure from the kids that creed

today I've gone so far down
its a blessing that i haven't drowned
open your arms again temptation
the reality of our complex situations so formal

this game, this game of chess we play
even though i sinned again I've lived another day
