I hope to rise above that damned halo This one above my head I have no use for it now So long it’s been dead Sparkling rays of light Create the blindness Blind the eyes of those I love Hides my sins like terrible darkness I hope to meet one soon One who will see what’s in me Inside my filthy heart Caress me, kiss me, oh so gently As I slip away into the shades of gray I hold on to what I love It pulls me back, I see the rays I have so much to live for until life is done I know it’s waiting The love is there I can find it by concentrating Always searching through the spiraled stairs But what I’m needing’s always been there Have mercy on me I’ve been so selfish I’d hoped to rise above that damned halo And here it’s been a zero the whole time. If one is the loneliest number Then what is zero? Not a number at all Until another digit rests beside it And the guilty feelings, they fall |
