Sing at God

by andy smith (akas) - Not entered


Sing at God and serve the Devil
Talk up peace and stir up trouble
Wish me well and make me ill
Say you love but never will

Bare me children, hide them away
Chain me up and go away
Beat me up and have me jailed
Cry for miracles, say I've failed

Save the fox and wear his coat
Build a home and rape the kids
Burn all those who can't forgive
Shoot the slaves who wish to live

Give me money in the wilderness
Give me water by the lake
Give me a view and gouge my eyes
Give me all I cannot take

Show me a feast and poison my plate
Give me a line without the bait
Tell me jokes without punchlines
Give me the sun that never shines

Come to the alter, slip off your dress 
Kiss my lips, bite off my tongue 
Hold my hand against your breast
Take a blade and shred my wrist

Reason for writing:

    
Hard to say
