I Want to be an Angel
But I don't know much about God
I know want to sit with him and his others
But my existence is sin
And I'll never reach what I want
Its fruitless
That's how God wanted all human effort to be:
Fruitless
Like Eve in the garden before
Lucifer showed her what she could have
If she defied one man’s wishes
I know not to worship the devil but
I'll follow Eve’s footsteps
I want more than what I can get so
I’ll try and fail and try and fail until I change
I never went to church
My mom didn’t believe that the chaplains were real priests and
My dad didn’t care either way
So whatever that means for me
And my relationship with God and
My own sins
I don’t know
But I do know that
I’m going to keep sinning and
Feeling how I feel
I’ve known me for 17 years and
God’s known me none
I know he could hurt me bad
I know I don’t respect him like I should
He’s going to hurt me when I die and he finds out that
I’ve gone through my life sinning and refusing to confess and being his bastard child
But I'm determined
I'll destroy my body and
Disfigure the face of
All that God’s created
To be an angel
