INFLUENCES

Breaking his own beliefs, and still he’s praying, a shameless sheep, Oh Lord.
Carrying a paper cross and still he’s praying for an immortal soul.

Caring…a little late, begging a little late, Oh Lord.
Caring…a little late. It’s such a crime…such a fucking crime.

Oh God, can you forgive a septic soul?
No, he has no will; he’s influenced by dilutions.

Stapling his faith to bills, and still his praying for abundance.
Sharing a white-nose trust and still his praying for endless calm.

He’s just caring…a little late, begging a little late, Oh Lord.
Caring…a little late, a crime, crime. Shut up.

Lonely mind in lonely times:
Lonely parade.
Lonely heart in lonely times:
Suicide.
Selfish mind in selfish times:
Selfish rewards.
Selfish heart in selfish times:
Selfish prayer.
