penance Songtext
von serpentwithfeet

Somehow though I am unkind
Grace flirts with me
While I model my anger after the sun′s disregard
Enemies gather to dance with me
Who is so impatient with karma?
Who would block my wicked reward?
And shower me with their blindness
With a love far too ripened?


A mercy is in retrograde
A mercy is in retrograde

Judgement has run from my door
Swarms of flies have brought honey and much much more
For me to be ashamed of
My evil has not been appraised

A mercy is in retrograde
A mercy is in retrograde
Oh
