I Have Forgiven Jesus

I was a good kid
I wouldn’t do you no harm
I was a nice kid
with a nice paper-round
Forgive me any pain
I may have brung to ye
With God’s help I know
I’ll always be near to ye
But Jesus hurt me
When He deserted me / but
I have forgiven Jesus
for all the desire
He placed in me
when there’s nothing I can do with this desire
I was a good kid
through hail and snow / I’d go
just to moon ye
I carried my heart in my hand
- do you understand?
- do you understand?
but Jesus hurt me
when He deserted me / but
I have forgiven Jesus
for all of the love / he placed in me
when there’s no one I can turn to with this love
Monday - humiliation / Tuesday - suffocation
Wednesday - condescension / Thursday - is pathetic
by Friday - Life has killed me
by Friday - Life has killed me
oh pretty one
oh pretty one
why did you give me /so much desire?
when there is nowhere I can go
to offload this desire?
and why did you give me so much love
in a loveless world?
when there is no one I can turn to
to unlock all this love
and why did you stick me in
self-deprecating bones and skin
Jesus - do you hate me?
why did you stick me in
self-deprecating bones and skin
do you hate me?
do you hate me?
do you hate me?
do you hate me?
do you hate me?
