Reply #11: "All is Forgiven" - Jellyfish

[mikeytherat]

heal me darling
pleaded the playboy bedroom eyes
grace your sunshine
till everything's ok, all right, fine

what's hers is his
cause everything is forgiven...forgiven
though he soured the milk of human
kindness all is forgiven...all is forgiven

truth and avarice
encircle his words like a barber pole
twisted and useless,
'til they disappear in her camisole
(goodnight alibi)

throw away your daggers and pills
cause everything's still forgiven...forgiven
though he bit off the nipple of human kindness,
all is forgiven

hypocrite, four flusher, snake in the grass
just a swindler and wolf in sheep's clothing,
liar

yes he tries to hide the cross he bears
but splinters, like the truth, have always risen
all is forgiven

though he shelters himself
in the shade of the wings of a stool pigeon
all is forgiven
