Razor Light

Waterdeep

You set the table in your spirit


entertain the devil for a while


And then you laugh at all his jokes


insisting it's alright-


it's okay to smile


but you are





Dancing with the demons


and walking on the wall that borders hell


thinking "Right now, I'm not testing God,"


but always wondering how you'd feel if you just fell?





I'd like to say that it was simple


like a dog you don't want pregnant so you fix her


But it's a matter of unconscious sin


I don't know if you know it, but you're been brewin' up a strychnine elixer


because you're





Are you walking darkly


to avoid the razor light?


Did you lose the taste of flesh and blood


when you threw up late last night?


Is your soul in some fine limbo


between bitterness and lust?


Can you talk about the cross these days


without wincing in disgust?
