A hymn for the Accuser: the flesh, the world, and the devil

lyrics

Why is your ambition to destroy us?
How do you drag me in
with your suicide and your fire?

How do you steal my will,
ache my back, drown my heart?

Why do I try to reason?
You’re irrational and slippery.

I cannot forget you.
Oh, I cannot forget you are not me.

Why do you follow me around
as a jester, as a clown?

You are the eye that makes me stumble.
I should pluck you out
of my weary head.

How do you slip in through the bottle
and hold my head down,
cross my feet up?

Why do I want you around still,
around until
I’m dead and in the grave
with the foolish and the shamed?

I cannot forget you.
Oh, I cannot forget you are not me.
