The Perks Of Being

from Manteision Bodolaeth by Rope

/

lyrics

Once blithe with spring, the summer thaw now settled in; there must be towns lovelier by far than ours. Some corner of some foreign field; lest their eyes see more, prevent it. As was said, I say out with you vile jelly. I was angry once at how life gives and how life takes away. I missed the point then, suppose we only ever do. Just intruders in the dust, a flag lost blowing in the wind. Lost to all but me, the Volga falls into the Caspian Sea. The lion, instead of devouring has chosen to lie down with the lamb. Millions condemned to forgiveness. The stone rolled away to leave the cave. Millions condemned and then forgave. The peacemakers shot in the face; the meek, enchained and enslaved. If I could absolve you, your accomplice in sin, would my absolution be valid and where would guilt begin?
