Hung pictures of patron saints up in my wall.
To remind me that I am a fool.
Tell me where I came from,what I always will be.
Just a spoiled little kid who went to catholic school.
When I'm dead I won't join their ranks.
Because they are both holy and free.
And I'm in Ohio,satanic and chained up.
And until the end,that's how it'll be.

I said make me love myself.
So that I might love you,
Don't make me a liar,because I swear to god.
When I said it I thought it was true.

Saint Calvin told me not to worry about you.
He's got his own things to deal with.
There's really just one thing that we have in common.
Neither of us will be missed.
𝙎𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩 𝘽𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙙 𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙨 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙤𝙥 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙮.
You always said how you loved dogs.
I don't know if I count.
But I'm trying my best.
When I'm howling and barking these songs.
