Living’s so close to loving
I is the problem
O the solution
Join in circles
Not easily broken
Only when open
My I is paper thin
Loving
You call it sinning
You stoned the women
It’s tradition in tribe
Judging
From where I’m sitting
You’re greenly jealous
And as lonely as an I
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
There’s pleasure in your suffering
(Y'all say so)
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
How can you sit on everything
Y’all say so
Suppress your love
Suppress desire
Compress a life
Till life expires
Hold your breath
In pinched denial
Complexity
Live in awe
Love your life
It’s yours to live
Regret forgive
Make more mistakes
Regret forgive
Accept everything
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
There’s pleasure in your suffering
(Y'all say so)
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
How can you sit on everything
Y’all say so
Serpents
Not all in Eden
Not all have poison
Tree of knowledge bitten
Heaven
No place for artists
Fucked up and human
We’re not getting in
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
There’s pleasure in your suffering
(Y'all say so)
A bitter virtue
I’d rather live in sin
How can you sit on everything
Y’all say so
