Wake Up All You Self Righteous Gods and Goddesses
SHE WON'T READ ME SO SHE WILL NEVER KNOW
IT'S FOR AND ABOUT HER
there are far too many people no one can satisfy
so in essence we should all just let them wail and cry
because tears ain't going to get them anywhere
so have i made myself amply clear?
weep your tears my dear, but good it shall not do
it's not going to help me any and it certainly won't help you
so go ahead with reddened eyes comparing yesterday to today
for comparisons will get you nowhere except some fResh FLESH to flay
so skin yourself alive if you dare
that's as good as a self-pitying tear
as for me i cry no more
for i find weeping an unnecessary bore
oh so there she sits on a seat of memories
listening to a disembodied voice whispered by the breeze
well that voice was silenced years ago when he bid his heavenly goodbye
and as i said, there are just too many people no one can satisfy
