Ovid in Metamorphosis
If God gave me pause, to re-establish my cause,
and effect the change I need to correct
This sinful wage I chose to select
in this day and age, turning
the page to find a new step
How does one convince idiots, who do nothing but take,
How to give? In that you would choose life,
that your descendants might live
How still I go and seed the nations of goodwill,
when I find myself fraught with anger and ill will?
Your faith has healed you, mine withers still,
I know exactly how you feel.
We fix our eye on the invisible sun
No idea why I get things done
It could happen to anyone.
I long to be close to you,
I want you to be closer to me.
I am divided between me and the world
I long to find a living God,
One who will accept me for myself,
whatever god that was...
Away from all the anger hurled,
Apart from this angry world
Just to sit down and shut up,
Sorry, I have become such a fuckup
Thank you for sending us the Word
Let me tell you what I have heard ~psp
