Edward Sexton - Jesus Christ and the Dinosaurs

I thought I could forgive you last night
But you can't hear me, from what I can see, you're asleep
And I'm beside you, I'd ask you what you mean
But I can't even forgive you in my dreams

And you're not here and I'm not there
And all you could do is dare
To wake me in the night
With the thought that you are still alive

But you don't say a thing
Not since you got too tired
The fatigue after pleasure
The silence after words

But do not fear, do not fear
For I have sent my seven best souls up before you
They'll keep you company and steal your time
And watch on your most very vengeful Gods

Yes my sisters they will dress for you
And sing you the saddest of songs
They'll beg for you to dance
Or at least to pretend that you want to play along

But what do you take
What do you take
You take their clothes for them

And why don't you try
Why don't you try
To forgive those who have wronged you

And I know you won't settle for anything less
You've got a guilty conscience that you loathe to second guess
I know you try to break the precedents you set
For your loves your hates, lovers and guests

But the sun shines its finest shine
And the grey clouds came
You said you'd always stand here for me
But it's not the same, it's not the same

You see the blood on my hands
And you're not sure if it's real
And we have nothing left to give
And you have nothing left to feel

And if you really believe in nothing
Then I shall be your Christ
But I can't stand on this hill naked for you
If you won't even look at me twice
