V1:
I want my bones to crack
I wanna be too hot
Permit any attack
Be it minor or not
When will the day come
When I push too hard
Realize true form
Or end up scarred
C1:
I may be different
In the bad way
That gives me no right
To do and to say
All those terrible things
The terrible things I do
My claws buried, deep
Into my palms
Blood flowing free
Psalms 79:3
V2:
See all minor acts
As an enormous offense
All my victories
Call for indifference
My world feels small
As small as it is
And when I push out
I feel no resistance
C2:
You may be different
In the good way
But that gives you no right
To do and to say
All those terrible things
The terrible things you do
My claws buried, deep
Into my palms
Blood flowing free
Psalms 79:3
B:
They call me poison
Because I am poison.
I am the rash
Feel proud of your treason
No meaningless task
Completed without frisson
No minor distraction
Ignored no matter the reason
I am the poison
And I will leave
None left to bury the dead
C3:
I may be bad
In the good way
But that gives me no right
To do and to say
All those terrible things
The terrible things I do
My claws buried, deep
Into my palms
Blood flowing free
Psalms 79:3

Intro:
Some day I’ll die
And if I don’t
So much the worse, so much the worse
V1:
I was finite
In a probably finite world
But now that’s changed
The rest of my life before me unfurled
Are we alive
Or just loaning life from god
And paying our debt by falling in love and losing it all
Ca:
In a million billion years
Our planet won’t still be here
Will I
Cb:
I’ve got powers beyond imagination
More than mere prestidigitation
But how far will I go
To reinvent myself
I keep all the things I don’t want outside in
No such thing as a perfect prison
Use all the silver you want
Nothing at all will help
V2:
Was I bit
Or was I born this way
I’ll need new clothes new shoes
And a new sobriquet
Am I the wolf
Or am I really just the man
Where do I stop and where does he start
And when will it end
