You'd like a shot at serious redemption, Only, like us all, you have no clue. Mostly satisfied, you leave your pew Knowing that you've satisfied convention Instead of being some more painful you. Perhaps there is no other truth than this; Perhaps the yearning must be unfulfilled. Unredeemed, you pay your debts as billed, Returning to a bliss that dreams of bliss.
