Omnipotence
If there is any deity out there,
And if you hear my voice cracking,
Why’d you let the seams tear,
And let the animosity come tacking.
I’ve built you up in my faith,
I’ve built you up an effigy.
But I’ve been accompanied by a wraith,
Who tirelessly consumes me.
If you are there, why am I alone?
If you are there, why haven’t you called?
The lack of answers I’ve been shown,
Like the blind sheep, I’ve too been lulled.
So tell me, where are you now,
When I needed you the most?
I cannot and will not bow,
To an ungracious host.
Are you unable to dow,
Or are you this haunting ghost?
Show me what I can do,
How do I appease you?
Show me what to do,
So I can get through.
An omnipotence calling in sick,
I bet you think you’re pretty slick.
Show me the way to go,
Show me what I need to know.
