What did they think I was talking about
I told them to leave my head
Little twisted basking around

Sleep deprived
Choice of a man
Jury, duty, trials, and fire
Bright shining thick hard light
Clear

Can't tell Him He's wrong
Lying lips always deceive
Break your arms and your wings
There is a limit to this
And I say stop

Thank you, we're closed, please leave
Taken advantage taken for granted
Stealing even what the rats would leave behind

You can't kill me
Your lies have nothing on me
I'm in Christ and I'm free
From your condemnation of me
And the big vampiric angel says so

Keep your house and your small dog
Keep every last one of your flees
And when you're pregnant don't ask me to name your puppies...
Because dogs catch flees

To wrestle is to live; to fight is to love.

Yeah its an accumulation of heartfelt emotions about a girl I was engaged to that acts as if I died, a gay man I'm living with that thinks he can coarce me into inappropriate behavior, and being rejected as well as accepted by my church, God, friends and family.  Basically take it all, squish it into one, clear it out through prayer and begin with a clean slate of mind.
Or something like that.

God bless,
In Christ,
-Craig

To wrestle is to live; to fight is to love.
