No Pain Today

No Pain today
Fresh Pain today
The Sun shines bright
I long for rain
merciless downpours
heed my call
And wash away the sins of the world

I smile wide
Flesh stretches tightly
And white teeth flash
In warmth or cold?
Bright eyes gleam
holding in tears or laughs?

Home, Sweet Home
A foundation of lies
We stay lying....
Fences keeping us in
or holding them out?

We're Paying, Paying
In time and in lives
The earth is greedy
drinking in the blood
And tears
And Darling Ones

Blood means life
And to bleed is to die
Living and Dying
And dead and breathing yet...
