The Rulebook Betrays

She leads with the controlling rod
And do I blame her, because she believes in God
And it always must come with some martyrdom
Will I succumb
To the same old disease
Always praying on my knees
Instead of with my eyes locked
On that holy box
That houses the crystalline
And Jesus reminded me of the peace that’s mine
When he burst open my heart chakra
And you could set my love by the clock, ya
Don’t worry that it’s gonna fade
As the years jade
The ocean that once was incandescent blue
And it all matters coz its something to you
Someday in the scene
Do you know that the dream
Can wake up to
Itself in you
And realise that beyond form
Beyond the place where the body’s warm
There is a lessening of the storm
That pelts the windowpane
And is it all in vain
If I just let it pass me by
Because the rules made me cry
When you pushed me to the plate
And told me I had to wait
To be fulfilled
And some people are skilled
In betraying themselves
But it’s never been one of my strengths
