There s a shadow just behind me
shrouding every breath I take
making every promise empty
pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler
who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path called "must we"
just before the son has come.
Jesuswon t you fucking whistle
something but the past and done?
Why can t we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can t we drink forever.
I just want to start things over.
I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave
I will work to elevate you
just enough to bring you down.
Trust me.
Mother Mary won t you whisper
something but what s past and done.
Trust me.
I want what I want.
