I thought about what Nietzsche said, the man always becomes a means to an end
But love more than ye are loved, and never be second
Is that why we're still alone, cause knowing even after all he'd done
God saw that to us, he'd always only be a way to fix our brokenness?

Sons and Lovers take the stand to bite off your own providing hand
If this isn't what I am to you, please find a way to show me
Because I'm changing without you, I am becoming my own man
And I'm making sure that to me you will never be the end again

I thought about what Gibran said, the mother is the source of everything
Our consolation in sorrow, our hope in despair, our strength in weakness
That's not who you are to me, and it cannot be who you'll ever be
But I hope to him you'll offer mercy, sympathy and forgiveness

Sons and lovers take the stand, to finalize the death you chose to demand
If you won't refuse to testify, there is no loving way to phrase it
I'm beaten and I'm giving in, but I'll never run from the battle again
Though the darkness that outpasses us all leaves me tiny and daunted

I thought about what Lawrence said, the value of the reckless revenge of man
And how she'd borne so long the cruelty of belonging, but never being claimed by him
I know that's where we are, and seeing as I can't reverse the rule of law
I'll be taking both sins on myself once and for all

Sons and lovers take the stand, you're murdering the sacrificial lamb
But what good am I to you now without my blood on your doorpost
If I die I'll rise again, I will not be forever condemned
And when I return, I will be with the ones who want to know me

I think about what Solomon said, concerning the conclusion of the matter at hand
Did he mean no matter what you did, that this was a given?
If our loves a chasing after wind, and there's nothing new and no more bread to cast
I'll just have to wait till the judgement of everything that is hidden
