Just Like Me

tell me all the wonders i did
to your body while you lay
i slipped out and stole the night while
someone took my place for the day

and he feels just like me
and he looks just like me
and he loves just like me
but he's not quite like me
and he cries like a baby
a complete disgrace to my memory
i drive the stakes into my flesh but
nothing makes it stand apart
a victim of my own ambition
not too clever not too art

but it feels just like me
and it looks just like me
does it love just like me?
does it come just like me?
i am god of this religion
you don't love me like i love you
you're the one who built the pillars
you don't need me like i need you
