Array ( [sid] => 107240 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Guilty [time] => 2005-10-07 03:11:02 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Guilty is not a name I wish to be called
But some frosty idiot forced it on me
If you have wronged all
You may call on me
Perchance you may be set free
So I have always lived in fear
For I feed amongst evil minded men
Who find gloating joy knowing my existence
been beating a countless time by men
been reprimanded a countless time by appearance
Because men like you choose to say “I am guilty”
And the jailers have not shown any pity
Know you not other ways to say yes
Know you not how to say yes and be terse?
How must you deliver false judgement on my hands?
Now I must run to foreign and distant lands
They too wait upon my arrival
They too have criminal minds and their rivals
I have no hiding place
Guilty must die in sorrow’s grave

Guilty

Guilty is not a name I wish to be called
But some frosty idiot forced it on me
If you have wronged all
You may call on me
Perchance you may be set free
So I have always lived in fear
For I feed amongst evil minded men
Who find gloating joy knowing my existence
been beating a countless time by men
been reprimanded a countless time by appearance
Because men like you choose to say “I am guilty”
And the jailers have not shown any pity

How must you deliver false judgement on my hands?
Now I must run to foreign and distant lands
They too wait upon my arrival
They too have criminal minds and their rivals
I have no hiding place
Guilty must die in sorrow’s grave

Guilt... seems like a simple subject, but in reality is very complex. Without knowing what the story is, it seems like you've addressed a lot of aspects of judgement and guilt with this. Interesting choosing of voice. It works well.
Blessings, J.
