Were that i the one that died in place of you |
|
Rather then prematurely paralyzed by you |
|
Would you have worn your grief like laurels bestowed upon you |
|
This useless gravity still felt by all but you |
|
You know that i wouldn't mind, i must have lied a thousand times |
|
And how i wanted to die just to sanctify my strife |
|
And as that i'm being honest, this is all that i wanted most of the time |
|
Could i offer up the years i spent resenting you |
|
For the nine years of my life that went to lay with you |
|
On the ground above you i'd lie, so solemnly contrite |
|
And i can finally forgive you, for everytime you saved my life |
|
We may have both came unwanted, but you were all that she wanted most of the time |
|
Through all the years i casually exploited you |
|
And still it never occured to me i was approaching you |
|
Or that the last six years of my life were overtaking you |
|
With an indifference divine |
|
My life down i will lie, you were only a kid then, |
|
Just one of god's stolen children |
|
Blessed with less time |
