Shepherd, No Sheep - Showbread

Forgive me children for I have sinned

I never asked you first

The way in which I wrote this song

The pen which scribed the verse

I never stopped to think of you

Each chord change, each refrain

Was done so with you not in mind

The farthest from my brain

Already gone and such a waste

Will you please put me in my place?

It’s not enough to just say the things you do

I hate music because of you

Being the connoisseur you are

With all you listen to

You know exactly what we’ve done wrong

And what we need to do

Come to you before each note

Is ever written down

Find out exactly what you want

Before we make a sound

Already gone and such a waste

Will you please put me in my place?

It’s not enough to just say the things you do

I hate music because of you

But I, in my arrogance

Have gone my separate way

Music is dead and so are we

And soon will come the day

When every single stupid song

And everything online

Will turn to dust, the moth, the rust

Decay and wasted time

If I am honest, there’s part of me

That hopes it makes you sick

I hope you cannot stand to hear it

Or bear the thought of it

I hope tomorrow you’ll curse our name

You’ll drill it in the dirt

I hope you’ll not come back to us

I hope it always hurts

But at Your feet I admit defeat

My work is now in Your hands

If they want to hear stupid music so very bad

They can start themselves a band

Already gone and such a waste

Will you please put me in my place?

It’s not enough to just say the things you do

I hate music because of you
