unavoidable |
(# 6 in the midwife series)
Cover my eyes, the sun is looking,
my sins are not completed.
The shadows must stay in place,
I am not ready for redemption.
My sins are not completed,
so many proclivities are left to explore.
I am not ready for redemption.
I prefer to be a libertine.
So many proclivities are left to explore.
The rays strip away my layers.
I prefer to be a libertine,
to this transition to truth.
The rays strip away my layers,
leaving naked and lonely,
to this transition to truth
I've been so long avoiding.
Leaving me naked, and lonely,
the dawn warms my pale flesh.
I've been so long avoiding,
I have never known love.
The dawn warms my pale flesh.
I cast my eyes toward the ground.
I have never known love,
cover my eyes, the sun is looking.
