Absent Minded

Touch Jesus

don't try to touch me,
don't try to reach me
no
don't try to tell me anything
don't try to share your wisdom
just keep swaying in the aisles
and touch Jesus
in the most provocative way
touch Jesus\
touch Jesus
your martyr your saint
touch Jesus touch Jesus
with everything you do and say

never mind my fears and tears
i don't matter to  you
I'm not your role model who makes a difference in this spiteful world
ill never show you anything
just keep humbling yourself
like a placebo for the mentally ill
and touch Jesus
touch Jesus
in the most terrific way
on broken hands and knees
crawling through the filth
they make you think you are
become a star
become a follower
and show them all
how to touch Jesus
in the most special way

I want to be just like you
i want to dream the way that you do
i want to hide my pain and tears behind a dead man
coming back to life like a monster movie
i want to live in eternal bliss
and touch Jesus softly in his loving memory

let me show you how
let me steal a kiss from the breath of your eternal child
let me paint you a holy picture of heaven
let me offer you a prayer
as s rub the death of your son in your face
and let me touch Jesus
your martyr
your soldier
your prophet
your light your saint your only way
in the most provocative way

I want the perfect death
so my soul can live another nightmare
i want the most horrible life
so i can choke on the words of one topic forever and ever
i want one thought to guide me through the nothing
i want to close my mind from reality
and think of nothing
but how you showed me everything
nothing
something
let me touch you
the way you touched me
let me be you
let me see you
let me hear you
let me keep you
let me heal you
and touch Jesus
touch Jesus touch Jesus touch Jesus

cause to me there is nothing else worth thinking about
