Hurt you

The song was written in 2000, but wasn’t finished until 2008.

Your mind was never open.
Your ears were always closed.

I drew the flaming sword of disbelief
and slashed your wings from your back.
You fell helpless to the ground.
And the ground made a real good impact.

I didn’t mean to hurt you.
I didn’t want you to leave.

All the words I had to say
were said, but not percepted.
When you led us the wrong way
I felt you should be corrected.

I didn’t mean to hurt you.
I didn’t want you to leave,
but I didn’t mind.
