Omar Rodríguez-López - Moment of Guilt lyrics

[Henry Rollins] Guilt wanted a moment of my time I asked, "Guilt, what could I possible do for you?" Guilt said "I've touched many. The good, the bad, the ones you think Would be impervious to my persuasions, and I've reduced them to Mere shell of themselves I take the very strong, the heroic, the weak and the despicable alike I invade their every thought and movement Their marriages fail, they become depressed, despondent Some of them are unable to hold on But most come out better." I asked, "How could that be? How could anyone become better by Having been put through so much pain? Guilt said, "I make them see themselves for what they are." I asked, "Whats the point?" Guilt said, "THat's the problem I'm having, I've come to hate myself, I hate what I do. I feel awful." "So, youre feeling the wrath of god?" I asked Guilt looked at the ground and nodded Guilt then looked up and said, I can't get to you, I've tried and tried. Nothing seems to work." "What do you think that is?", I asked Guilt answered, " Because you're a monster." I said "It took you this long to figure that out?"
