Blindfold
I’m blinded by malice and jealousy fills my soul
all the sinners are done with,mine ; the last show.
I blindfold twice around my head
no self-righteous man I might see
no truth, no law, no nice
no good shall pass through me.
I’m nothing but one echo
in this pool of millions serenading a whim
give it to God, it has been given
so sinners shall continue the sin.
I never seek the light ,
in the dreary corners of my heart
a closet full of nibbled carcasses,
hope, a sculptor’s best piece of art.
I sin in aggression, I sin in pain
then sinning with a gin and tonic
and sinning becomes a game.
who father in heaven, if heaven might be
should banish me in hell for all eternity
for never is a man completely happy,
mortals do chase that unattainable win
Me, I’ve lost the fear of losing
some losing it has been
I fasten the knot behind my head
so sinners shall continue the sin.
