The Maddness

I miss the married life
O how I wish that the anti-Christ
hadn't seduced my world
hadn't seduced my wife
I should have known from the beginning
when she said he was close to life
and that we should all practice his lies
now here I am all alone
how I wish that I had a woman
instead of this broken home
divorce can not set us free
according to the words of the king
I am here and either way
it is adultery
damsel what shall I say
come and die with me?
Denial run back to the darkness
where it is very hard to see
while I stand here in the fire
and pray to God for our mercy

Perhaps I should publish a book
and you know I love to write
I have nothing else to do
now that I have lost my wife
I'll bring down my enemy
sitting upon his throne so high
truth will cut him to size
and strip him of his pride
then I'll look in his eyes
and say,
you teach the people to worship false Gods
then tell them to observe strange holy days
you have set up idols
these things lead the children astray
the dead are not in heaven
they are waiting for the resurrection
heaven will be here on earth
and there will be a judgment day
open the Bible in your hand
tell me, what does it say
and where will you be
do you want to live with out flesh and bone
you just might find yourself there
living without a home
broken and all alone
an eye for an eye
here am I
we are here and still alive
don't you think you should apologize
to all the world and to me and my wife
for all those lies before it is all to late
I do not hate
let us all forgive each other and walk
right up out of the grave
for all those who honestly repent
will surely find some grace
