If you were given another chance
Would you perform the same
And blow those bastards away?
Would you have found the courage
Not to put a symbolic phallus inside your mouth
And seen white instead of red?

Questions, no matter philosophical
Won't raise the dead
But I refuse to hold a vigil
To your irrational, sadistic crimes
You ain't a hero
And neither are they
You should have let karma
Light the way...

But I had sympathy for you
Before you pulled the trigger
You could have walked away
And found something else to obsess about
Before you sent them to kingdom come
In the end, they whipped you severely
And it's a price you're definitely paying
There is only one Jesus
And try as you might
You failed miserably to walk in his shoes
You sold a soul for eternal life
Self sacrifice? No self indulgence
The Devil's stock in trade.

You could have found distractions
Plenty out there
Even if you opened up one eye
To avoid the unspeakable
Yet you were smitten by the audacity of evil
Instead of uncovering the root causes
That infest your grave
Where you now lie
Just like in real time
Deaf 2 the world...
