I heard myself cry from the tile The darkness of eternal night started closin in And I thought surely no future exists Tuesday, now I hardly think of you But when I do I think only of shame And girl I tell ya if I could do it again I sure as hell wouldn’t do it the same No I cannot believe that I stepped down and lied I should have told you I loved you And now I know that your shame was not mine And I am perfect in my Lord’s eyes For a decade I let you live in my head But with this exorcism I put our story to bed And one more thing, if you hear this song Tell your mama she can go suck an egg Edited by Michael Speed All images by Lindsey Byrnes Website: https://julienbakerandtorres.com/ Instagram:   / julienrbaker     / torreslovesyou   Twitter: https://x.com/julienrbaker https://x.com/torreslovesyou TikTok:   / julienbakerandtorres   #JulienBaker #TORRES #SITT
