How Things Are

I carry a picture in my pocket
And kiss it everyday
So when God comes to take my soul
He’ll know just where it stay

I keep my anger in its socket
Tho' it says come out and play
So when God comes to take my soul
I will have squeezed it all away

I write happiness on a docket
To plan it well for its display
So when God comes to take my soul
He’ll not hear my regret pray

But my love? It is on a rocket
To take off in fiery noisome way
So when God comes to take my soul
Blazing triumph’s colors say what I would never say.
