MEA CULPA by HVRTS
I don't want to be a vengeful person. Anger and hatred and the subsequent guilt of those feelings are burdensome. I know vengeance does not equate to justice, and hurting those who have hurt me won't undo the trauma they've caused. But sometimes, I want to ignore my morals. Sometimes I need to bathe in those feelings and let them wash through my soul like the water of a baptismal font.

Lyrics
I KNOW THIS
I KNOW THE FLAIL
TEACHES NAUGHT BUT HOW TO FLINCH
I KNOW THE RAISED VOICE
TEACHES FEAR NOT COMPLIANCE;
I KNOW THIS
BUT WHEN I AM FINALLY ALLOWED TO BE
AT THE OTHER END OF THE KNIFE
I WILL TWIST IT INTO THEIR WOUNDS
I KNOW THIS IS NOT MERCIFUL
LET ME CARRY THE GUILTY BLADE
