Scruples

from Deaths by The Soundrops

lyrics

fear enjoins obedience but it can`t enjoin love
help me, Lord, to love You, not only be afraid

I`m afraid of life
I`m afraid of death
I`m afraid to write
and to sing

don`t You need me anymore in Your plan?
do these heavy headaches mean that soon I will die?

where are You, oh God of joy?
why are You coming only as the God of wrath?
but I have to stop, my conscience screams
I may say too much

and in my heart volcanos burst
it`s always so when You`re not there
and in my palms there are no notes
and in my pen there is no soul
I`m trembling still, I cannot move
beautiful youth, beautiful youth

I can see You only on the cross
I cannot see You smile
I can`t find the Easter
I can find myself only in the Lent

I can`t stand the evil in me
every day I see more
I`ve had enough, I want to quit
but to whom, Lord
can I go?
