Which Ledge Do You Allege By Phreepoetree
WHICH EDGE DO YOU ALLEGE?
I never claimed to be your teacher
You want to learn s**t go to your local preacher
But when you enter his sanctuary don’t make any noise
Because he may be having sex with one of the alter boys
I never claimed to be your guru
I only taught and repeated exactly what you knew
You followed my example and don’t blame that on me
You had a litany of ways to say no but you thought I could set you free
I never claimed to have a method of any god damned use
My method was a lie and a weapon to protect myself from human refuse
While you allowed me to lead you into the garbage dump of waste
Where people like us come to play with other people who are all two-faced
I never claimed to know what you or I should do
And I never claimed that I’d even care for you
I took no oath, no vow, no promise or predetermined pledge
Only you chose to follow me. just like a lemming, to the edge
