We are all mistakes

We are all just mistakes

And sins that haven’t been forgiven

So we try to make heaven

Out of hell

Passing ‘round the blame

Until we forget the transgressions

Against us.

We are nothing close to hope.

Take a breath and a drink,

Pray to whichever god you believe in

To save you from the nightmare

That you can not wake up from.

So put the drugs into your bloodstream

And shudder all responsibility to a stop.

Fall asleep to public television

Selling you a diluted version of truth.

Our love is never free,

We always pay a price for learning the truth

About the ones we truly care about.
