Crying Shame
Who is this I find inside
Is it Jeckyll or is it Hyde
God help me I wish I knew
The cause for the evil that I do
Could it be some random urge
The dictates of a power surge
I would thus not claim the blame
Nor allow others to decry my shame
I may not ever yet quite win
Be absolved of every sin
So I won't ask to spare that rod
But my reasons are between me and God.

I may not ever yet quite win
Be absolved of every sin
So I won't ask to spare that rod
But my reasons are between me and God.

I try to keep Mr. Hyde at bay when I think of you, Belle. Can't say it's easy.

Never accept absolution. Just keep wondering and keep it on the real. That's true accountability. Fiery good write crowfly!
