Atonement

Simon Curtis

This is my atonement
For the things that I have made
All the people, places, demons
Entities that I gave

Away little bits and pieces
Of my very own soul
But I learned a few lessons
And I paid a few tolls

Every martyr needs a sacrament
It's time I made mine
But I'm not a fucking martyr
Just a little numb inside

I tried to be a savior
Tried to be a damn king
Died trying to rule the world
Everyone and everything

But the biggest thing I wish I knew then
I know now
Is that you don't get to ascend
Before you learn how to bow

And now I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
