Get it right
My last word sins
I taste it now
Omission wins
For keeping down
My better side
I still ignore
And try to hide
So get out
The easy word
Will never slip
I brought it down
To take the lip
Dont need to know
Dont have to feel
Your better side
I had to steal
Your better, you die better
Write down the day, expend it
Work it in again, death ends it
