Where I’m Going

By Shane

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I haven’t been a sinner, but I haven’t been a saint Sick of my impersonations, of people that I hate I haven’t killed but I’m no saint, I don’t want to leave for hell But it’s where I’m going Looking for my mind, to give it back to myself Seems like my only chance to avoid this hell When it’s clear nothing can help Because it’s where I’m going I see a bright, though it shines it’s not for me I seem to hide light, it’s all I’m good for Though I can’t make a change, I’d like to replace Where I’m going So I guess it’s my time, What could be worse for me god? Betrayed again by your laughing earth But I still love you man, no matter… Where I am going Though I feel the need, to blame everyone but me I can’t see the point, of contesting my reality So tell me now god, tell me as a man Tell me, just where I am going to? So should you make the change, I know that I can change So your finished with me My last wish in this life Please tell me where I am going Why am I going to hell? Where’s heaven now Please tell me where I am going Written March 14th, 2002 © on Mar 14 2002 09:20 AM PST   10 • 0
