Divergence


A contract must be written.

Run away, you'll never be forgiven.

A sinner that has wronged me,

as a sinner you must be given to me.

The paper you have received,

that I have written,

had nothing to be sought.

For you have been bought,

by a man with a grin.

 

A contract must be written.

Run away, you'll always be forgiven.

A sinner we have to be,

as a fellow sinner you have to trust me.

The nothing that has been given,

and the nothing that's been received,

had everything to be cherished.

For we have brought

happiness together.
