On the fire,
The bridge in water
A blaze caught the girl's attention
Above her eyes a leering force of entrapment and downers.
By her side,
A man in white
Christian to the core was his heart
And in his soul was wine.
By her side,
A man in black
Skeptic to the core was his heart
And in his soul was lust.
In the sky was an eye
And in the eye was darkness
It watched over the three.
The eye glimpsed over at the clock on its side
It said "time's ticking."
The girl looked at the man in white
She asked why he was drunk
He said the Lord's blood ran through him
His love made him free
The girl looked at the man in black
She asked why he was lustful
He said Nature's life ran through him
Biology made him who he was.
She couldn't help but wonder what she believed
Her cheeks were all rosy gold and her nose running
Her faked skin made her uncomfortable.
The clock by the eye stopped ticking finally
And everything flashed
It was final
The verdict was out
The judge said they were all the same
As they all turned to dust
Nothing more, nothing less.
