Vagabond Soul

My Face

you can be my rosey light
you can be my Jesus Christ
you can be my Napoleon
or you can be my beaten wife
you can be my bricklayer
you can be my forgotten prayer
you can be my genocide oh you can be
but you best beware

you can call me the evil one
you can call me a disgrace
you can call me devils spawn
but you better not say it to my face

you can be my only clue
you can be my lost value
you can be my slaughterhouse
and you'll wind up so black n blue
you can be what I employ
you can be what I destroy
you can be my obstacle and might be the killer of all your joy

you can call me safaris son
you can hope that I'm erased
you can call me tucked up
and dumb
but you better not say it
to my face
