Bow Down, Beg
Week 42
you plead for my attention
I don't know how to give
I stare with apprehension
you need me just to live
we are incompatible
our closeness is withheld
our problems are impassable
we will never match or meld
I beg for your forgiveness
you bow down and let it go
our pain becomes a stillness
we hope will never show
You have done it now
A bell that cannot be unrung
Get down, beg!
No longer one to be among
Time to pay the price
and live a life of atonement
Get down, beg!
Not free for even a moment
Strap in for the ride
Get ready for your life ahead
Get down, beg!
You're going to wish you were dead
You call for action
Without forgiveness in your heart
Get down, beg?
Pursuit doomed from the very start
It's clearly hopeless
What is there left for me to try
Get down, beg?
Nothing is gained when I comply
Tell me here and now
What would you have me do instead
Get down, beg?
Or put a bullet through my head
