I Am Told

I was informed about a spy
Who acted too well in the play
Every thought was not his own
Or else we would never say

I know from past experience
Not to mention peace and love
Every kiss is a bodily urge
Or else we free the dove

I weep with my fallen angel
About the sign on our road
Every turn is a very dead end
Or else we ease the load

I forgive those who are unforgiven
For crimes they did not commit
Hidden monsters will be dealt with
Or else this world will turn to shit

I appease my need for solitude
By smoking up my outer life
One day soon I may escape
Or else I will never find a happy wife
