Guilt And Regret

(album: The Cold White Light - 2002)

Guilt and regret, they are my two inbred brothers
Guilt and regret
O god, how I hate them both from the bottom of my heart

Guilt and regret and me wake up into a brand new day
Guilt and regret lively
I am still dead tired the night has been long and hard

My brothers they ask me:
"Do you recall anything from yester-night, no?"
They laugh at me and go:
"Nothing at all? well, it must have been an evening of joy"

Guilt and regret
O god, how I hate them both from the bottom of my heart

Each morning like this they come, uninvited
Pale as ghosts, reeking of compost
Yet most I abhor their bloodshot eyes

My brothers they ask me:
"Do you recall anything from yester-night, no?"
They laugh at me and go:
"Nothing at all? well, it must have been an evening of joy"
My brothers they tease me:
"Do you remember anything from yester-night, no?"
They laugh at me and go:
"O sure you do, we buried our little sister hope"

Guilt and regret and me what a twisted family we are
Guilt and regret
O god, how I hate you both from the bottom of my heart
