Forbidden Words
Don’t cry… Don’t feel
Your emotions aren’t real
Bliss does not exist
God hates you… His creation
So he hordes his salvation… From you
And won’t share forgiveness… With you
Unless you are a witness… To religion
To the fact… Happiness does not exist
Because depression is the true Savior
It justifies your behavior
As you search for the lie of the truth
In your stolen youth
So never show love… Or give love
Hate is always enough
Never touch skin on skin
For fear of un-forgiven
Just sleep deep and dream
Beautiful symmetrical perfect things
From the womb and beyond
Never admit creation is flawed
Because hell waits patiently
If you don’t blindly believe
But always remember
Never… Never… Never
Let lips and tongues repeat
The forbidden words
Deceived… Free… Seek… Disbelieve… Dream
