live from my deathbed

walden freeman

i fear:

no man
no myth
no legend
no god
no idol
no land
no ocean
no blade
no grass
no tree
no leaf
no claw
no animal
no hand
no palm
no sunday
no week
no end
no cliff
no hanger
no decision
no closet
no indecision
no case
no mouth
no eye
no ear

no fear
we have nothing to fear
we have everything to lose
we have nothing to lose
no fear
can prepare us
for what is coming

glory to god
glory to you
glory to i
glory to vowels
glory to consonants
glory to nouns and verbs
vegetables, fruits, economies
statues, liberties
glory to the virgins
to the mary's
to the married
to the josephs
to the josephines
to the saints
to the cathedrals

forgive your enemies
forgive your friends
end every sentence
end every life
sentence
end every crime
end ever penalty

life is good
life is bad
life is shit
life is a joke
a meaningless joke
where we find meaning
where i've found you
i've got no one in the world because i've got you

i've run out of fuel
i've run out of houses
where i've lived
i've lived for so long
life is too short
this is my goodbye
tomorrow is new
glory to god
glory to man
tomorrow is new

new will be old
glory to fear
