Why Is It My Fault

 Why Is It My Fault

 

Woke up a December morning the sun was shining on you                                      

I tried to remember the evening but it was hard to do                                               

The sanctity of sleep had conquered your face but a smile lingered on                    

I got dressed in a silent rush and in five minutes I was gone                                    

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

Santa Claus was ringing his bell for the Salvation Army

He was nipping on the bottle but that fact didn’t alarm me

I tossed in a dollar hoping that it would really go to the poor

I thought of giving you a call but something in me wasn’t sure

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

There are ten thousand horses stampeding inside my beating heart

I remember your words “Every act of love is an act of art”

Well darling it takes two to tangle and that ain’t no maybe

It’s hard to be happy when you’re weeping over the coming baby

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

I’m just a part time song writer stuck on the blues

One man’s tragedy another’s good news

I wish the world could be a kinder place

Money honey has hijacked the human race

 

Your knitting stockings shocking pink and it makes me kinda think

That the night really ain’t black it’s only just a puddle of spilled ink

Alone is a state of mind there are over eight billion down here

With a sigh I accept the lie and reach over to draw you near

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

I Remember

 I Remember

 

They were yesterdays of pain hurt falling like rain             

Words or phrases would never serve to explain                  

Outcast for the dark crime of just being me                          

And until this day I am still fighting to be set free      

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

In the company all of the dogs call me sir

In the family I caused a little stir

I desire to destroy Babylon the Whore

They’d shoot me dead but they’re all afraid of nuclear war

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

I misquoted Steven Tyler on my resume

I put a question mark under current pay

I ain’t mean but they do kill on my behalf

It ain’t a joke brother so I hope I don’t hear you laugh

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

The wisdom of the system is from Lucifer

I’ve got lyrics do you know a record producer?

Myron lost in dorm sixty-two of Graystone U

So tell me the sorrows you’ve been through

 

The mystique of a freak my God is on my side

I can’t run because there ain’t no place to hide

So I sit and reflect on years of disrespect

Every day we’re dealt a new set of cards from the deck

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry
