Complicity
The sweetest smelling tree in the forest
Was the one I nailed You to
The tree You designed
Just rough enough
To flay a flogged back
The most merciless nerve in the body
Was the one I nailed through
With the metal You made
Just thin enough
To keep two veins alive
The greatest love story in the world
Was the one I mocked You for
With the voice You gave
Just loud enough
For You to pray for me
And die
The sweetest smelling tree in the forest
Was the one I nailed You to
The tree You designed
Just rough enough
To flay a flogged back
The most merciless nerve in the body
Was the one I nailed through
With the metal You made
Just thin enough
To keep two veins alive
The greatest love story in the world
Was the one I mocked You for
With the voice You gave
Just loud enough
For You to pray for me
And die
