Genesis 4:9 (for jeb)

My fondest MEMORIES are the most obscure
Would you remember if I list them here?
Sinéad O’Connor was in the bedroom
and the Emperor had new clothes
Apparently I did too – but nobody ever knows
It’s the last thing you want to see
and the first thing you notice in the rest
You think the class thing could set you free
while you’re forgetting that you’re blessed
Knocking on heavens door was an everyday occurrence
That’s why I always played that song
and drowned in its current
I’m still swimming in waters over my head
and it’s only is getting deeper
And I might have drowned in my bed
If I were not my brother’s keeper
