Goddamn us.

There's a black toxic waste,
where I once made the paste,
that held the bindings on our battered book.

Oh holy book, deliver us from this one.

Silence.

For one, rationale makes me think twice
of a god with a hold button.

Forsake your creation.

Forgive, Forget, Forsook.
We are sentient, God damn us,
We are sentient. Wash that off.

We're pumping Christ into our veins,
a true prayer over life's stains,
and when it starts to hurt
they'll blame winged growing pains.

God damn us, we are sentient.

We are the emotion of the motionless,
a torn cloak of innocence.
We can wring the wood dry,
but we'll still sink for our sins.

And this is all a better suit to wear,
when the shadow tunes our bell.
Truth hurts eyes that are too weak to bear it.
Your morals freeze over hell.

And it's a cold, dry place to find yourself.
