Changed -

Did you see the fire last night?

I swear the heavens were aflame

I closed my eyes and stepped outside

And softly called your name

Listen to the crocus sway

That low and distant buzz

The past seems so impossible

And maybe dear it was

Do you believe that I have changed?

Can you believe?

Yes I know you’re always there

To watch my every step

I guess the news my heart is true

Just hasn’t reached you yet

With springtime came the heavy rains

To cleanse this stinking earth

A succubus fell on my lap

My word it lost its worth

Do you believe that I have changed?

Can you believe?

Everyone is capable

Of deeds unclean and dark

Truth and light were lost to me

I played the villain’s part

I dug a hole and climbed inside

My mind was sick with doubt

But now I want to live again

Beware I’m crawling out

Do you believe that I have changed?

Can you believe?

For I cannot
