lyrics

Momma says I'm heaven sent
but honestly is there a difference
between right and wrong, love and lust, light and dark

Daddy says I'm useless
but I don't speak english anymore
I communicate solely through telepathy, through melodies, through breastfeedings.

Teacher says I'm gifted so she pulled me aside,
put stickers on my eyes,
tells me I can write real good, write real cool, write graffiti.

But either way it's okay
If god forgives he'll let me in
when I'm knocking at the pearly gates.

Or will I be turned away
this bitter cup of truth is down to the dregs.
If jesus saves then take my sin.
I'm sorry for being such a shitty person.

Girlfriend says I'm perfect
and punches me in the stomach repeatedly
we sleep with other humans, other friends, other heathens.
