She's looking at me
so patiently,
quietly waiting.
Could you just forgive so I can just live?
No need to dwell,
I told myself.
I made time for this,
but not for that.
Briefly acknowledge you, then turn right back.
What
if all the
things I did instantly reversed the bad of the Jewish death?
What if all that I withheld
will return to you tenfold?
No matter how rich,
can't get that camel through the needle.
What if
all that I withheld will return to you tenfold?
Will return to you tenfold?
Surely I've done
what feels like enough.
Will it hold up
when called upon?
Cutting corners in life,
built on a bundle of a little lies.
Got my reasons, oh, I, I told myself.
What if all the things I did
instantly reversed
the bad of the Jewish death?
What if all that I withheld will return to you tenfold?
No matter how rich,
can't get that camel through the needle.
What if all that I withheld will return to you tenfold?
All of the things that we desire,
all of the things that we admire.
Surely there is more
to the gain as our dreams climb higher and higher.
All of the things that we aspire, what
is it all truly require?
Surely there is more to the gain as
our prayers climb higher and higher.
What if all the things I did
instantly reversed the bad of the Jewish death?
What if all that I withheld will return to you tenfold?
No matter how rich,
can't get that camel through the needle.
What if all that I withheld will return to you tenfold?
Will return to you tenfold?
Tenfold.
