I Discovered A New Galaxy

Last night we went searching for Christmas lights But the storms had taken the power out We tried to sing life back to the bulbs Too distracted by the fault, we failed to notice The stars breathing at last I guess we won't know what we missed Everyone is playing God Ironically including me Despite the call to be the salt of the Earth We fall short Screaming from up on a soapbox, it’s your throne Precisely placed to put you on a pedestal You make a false god of the character, your ‘role’ Despite your rage at all the pagans for idols So lionise a xenophobe, a sexist and a fraud Give them a pass because they pray to the same God It’s not like anyone expects perfection, and I can’t talk But your lack of self awareness can’t be ignored And who are we to judge Who are we to claim the decision on what they'll become And who are we to say "I'm above that wretched sinner" Why do we condemn All the people we’re not much better than The wicked hate the light Do you feel exposed? Hands soaked with blood you quickly ensconced I caught you in the dark with my reading light I couldn’t see The blood in your eyes, ready to slice through her throat She saw what the light pollution hid At the perigee Kire was killed for her discovery Cover your trail, lest people won’t hail Your position of power must be protected from the vain No one can know that you’re twisted and ashamed You don’t have to apologise if no one’s none the wise So cover your trail, lest people won’t hail And yet in your haste, you failed to notice The irony in stating the obvious All she had seen was the Pleiades And who are we to judge Who are we to claim the decision on what they'll become And who are we to say "I'm above that wretched sinner" Why do we condemn All the people we’re not much better than Don’t test me I know You never lived for this anyway Don’t test me I know it’s the only thing unforgivable Don’t test me I know You never lived for this anyway Don’t test me I know it’s the only thing unforgivable (Last night) Don’t test me I know you never lived for this anyway (We went searching for Christmas lights) Don’t test me (Too distracted by the fault we failed to notice) I know it’s the only thing unforgivable Don’t test me I know you never lived for this anyway (The stars breathing at last) Don’t test me (I guess we won’t know what) I know it’s the only thing unforgivable
