Belgian Soul

(Originally Written May 4, 2003)

Belgian Soul

There's a hole in the back of my head
About the size of a shotgun shell
I'm floating above my body so I can see it well
To the right there is this blinding light
To the left just eternal dark.

It's a ghost, no, an angel
And the devil himself
Placing bets upon my soul

Apparently Gabriel and old Lou have a running bet
And my soul just might square the debt.
I was neither good nor bad, for or against
I guess I was just a Belgian Soul

2 of the 7 Deadly Sins

(Originally Written May 3, 2003)

Greed

All we have is everything
Everything means nothing
In the new society of greed
Let's listen to the creed
And what's sad
is I am just as bad.

I must admit I am a selfish fucking brat
Give me more
Give me more
Give me more

Sloth

Dreary negligence
We all move towards our stench,
slowly and lazily
What have we wrought?
This pain and suffering from our sloth.

Just let me lie here just one more hour
Just let me lay here for now
Just let me lay here just one more day
I will be fine, everything's ok.

We Are Not God

(Originally Written May 1, 2003)

What have we done to render the heat from the sun to make it hotter?
What have we done to render the storm of the sky to cause so many more to die?
What have we done? What can we do?
If we must rely the strength of man we are lost.

We have not learned a thing
Since the Fall of Man
Neither from the Tower of Babel
Nor the hubris that collapsed to rabble
Could change our ways?
We grow sicker and sicker.
The sin is getting thicker and thicker
When will we cease and stop?
For God we are not.
