It seems you have everything that I lack.
A perfect halo. My one's cracked.
You're the princess of virtue, sugar and spice.
I'm the prince of darkness, acid and strife.
You scold me for my reckless ways.
You see things clearly. My sight's a haze.
When you catch darkness you throw it back. But I'll find light and paint it black.
On the jagged line I walk I'm on the edge. But am I really guilty of the crimes that you allege?
When trouble strikes you let it fly. But I collect. An eye for an eye.
You live a fairytale, rainbows and butterflies.
I live astray, I have to improvise.
You spread your joy and claim your prize. I do my good deeds in disguise.
If I do something good you don't detect it. So I'll dissapoint, so you wont expect it.
You chastise actions you have'nt seen. You'll never know the places I have been.
I'm happy to let you be the saviour. You'll look the hero next to my bad behaviour.
I'm tainted. Way past saving.
Guilty without a doubt.
You shake your head and cast me out.
A holy being I could never be. But I'm only what you choose to see.
I disturb you. I make you sad.
Truth be told.
I'm not that good
But....
I'm really not that bad.
