a patchwork quilt
all the lies
and the good-byes

GUILT
a patchwork quilt
all the yesterday's
all the today's
all the gone away's
especially
those that stays
that be

a patchwork quilt
memories
of used ta' be's
and "back when's"
when you "see's"
how things "be's"
you remember your sin's
all over agin's
GUILTIE'S
for what you be's
and what you see's
and who you are
knowin' you went too far
just GUILTY
of bein' the "me's"
that i am
GOD d**n
GUILT

GUILT
a patchwork quilt
of all you've done
believe me

to be GUILTY
to know
to show

a patchwork quilt
of you're life
your strife
and what you've done
with the risin' & settin' of each sun
