    Story Behind the Song
    this song came about towards the very end of miss anthropy. we only played it a few times, but i think this was one of the better ones. The lyrics relate to the culture of forgiveness and how horrible misdeeds or actions can be seemingly cleaned from the proverbial slate. but regardless time can not be erased and it always exists- even if it's forgotten or forgiven

    Lyrics
    considerate
    he does the things he does because he loves you
    too much
    scars eyes can't see
    touch the smile
    in a dream
    pay in full for innocence
    a distant dream.
    A local dream
    simplistic,shattered, lost
    the crime of being pure
    the crime of doing nothing
    irresponsible
    handgun, handshake
    but...bang
    sorry,done, forgetten
    no choice but to forgive me
    forget the monster in the closet
    although he slaughtered a village
    he was never there
    repent, to start over again
    repeating your mistakes
    and denying that they were mistakes
    people change?
    whoever said you were a person?
    the eyes decieve
    because you can never see close enough
    and scars never heal
    and the past IS obsolete
    with a handgun,handshake
