a song for the righteous


The angels and the innocents
are lusting for revenge
the devils and the sinners
all too joyful to repent

I don't see that all your purity
is shining through the dark
all the monsters and the debutantes
are now loaded on the ark

If I said I'd never cheated
and you said you'd never lied
would that make us even
would that settle up the bill

would that be the measure
could you find someone to blame
all our kisses and our murders
all our profits and our shame
