For You All (My Secret Sin)

For those of you whom say I have to much hate in this heart I don’t hate you with this guilty fever But I don’t love you either I don’t hate you with this guilty fever But I don’t love you either And yet they tell me things change But when you look back on it It all seems strange Promised to return as one to the manger Tiptoeing over cement splits Trying to avoid danger Reality just dealt you a stiff blow When evil is near Christians feel a drift in flow This is the humor in life Without stress being detrimental There’s a little hate in the center of all of us Being semi-sentimental My life is portrayed on a conspicuous display Go ahead and kiss if you may Shooting for heaven No way we can miss if we pray Then again I’m likely to on this day I was as peaceful and innocent as an old man Stroking his beard Just as his time neared
