Testo Alter Ego

Of the acceptable reactions to tragedy
Gardening, the priesthood and insanity
Look what you've chosen
Just to be disingenuous to the letter

I can't force you to fail or force you to shut up
And I don't want you to fail
I want you to show up But you're making a choice to which it's hard not to
stick

How can a true confidant be unworthy of trust
How can such a simpering git get what he wants
I can't force you to fail or force you to show up
And I don't want you to fail
I want you to shut up
But you're making a choice to which I hope you don't
stick
