I ran my fingers through your hair
Like all the others before
But I could not feel anything
No I want something more
I traced your tattoos with my fingertips
Like I heard once in a song
But I could feel no impressions
I think something's wrong
Oh that I could see you as they do
As a treasure box full of gifts
But all I see from you
Are the things that I can get
There is no love between us
What kind of man have I become?
If you could see the thoughts in my brain
Baby you would run
Is there really a lake of fire
Where the bad people go
And the worms eat out their brains
And their skin just stays aglow?
If the devil is a lion
And Jesus is a lamb
Why can't they lie together
After the trumpet sounds?
Goddamn all the wrongs I've done
In my whole life
Goddamn all the things I've tried to do
That did not come out right
Forgive me in the morning
For what I will do tonight
Forgive me somewhere down the line
Just please before I die
