| All the wanting in the world
|
| Won’t bring your god to life
|
| Your weightless words are swept away
|
| And I don’t think anyone noticed
|
| I used to hope you’d just be extraneous
|
| But now I don’t even hope
|
| Everything you’ve ever said
|
| Every hatred, every sleight of hand
|
| Sees you fade out to irrelevance
|
| So I guess thank God for that
|
| We could happily burn the lot
|
| As a promise
|
| For every childhood destroyed
|
| Every woman shamed
|
| Let the fires burn as a signal
|
| Let the fires burn as a signal
|
| Let the fires burn as a signal that
|
| Our community won’t fail to protect them again
|
| All this destruction will be avenged
|
| You have delighted in harsh decisions
|
| But it was really never a risk
|
| Because you would never feel
|
| The consequences!
|
| I’m sick of the same white male excuses
|
| For those gross white male abusers
|
| Every hatred, every sleight of hand
|
| Sees you fade out to irrelevance
|
| So I guess thank God for that |
