Unsung Psalm

There would be songs sung by a choir I would have a white robe, a halo newly acquired I'd be at peace and I'd have no desire If I'd lived right There would be cherubs with tiny harps arrows and bows I'd have a halo and a flowing white robe I'd be enfolded by a celestial light If I'd lived right I'm feeling hot and bothered under the collar I feel the sweat breaking out on my brow I feel the heat and I know it's the passion The love I can't disavow If this is a dream, wake me up now If this is a movie, let's edit these scenes out It would be a PG instead of an X-rated life If I'd lived right Some would call me a cheat, call me a liar Say that I've been defeated by the basest desires Yes I have strayed and succumbed to my vices But I tried to live right But I have no regrets, no guilt in my heart I only feel sadness for any pain that I've caused I guess I wouldn't bother to worry at all If I'd lived right Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules? Do you care what is thought by others about you? If this day is all that is promised to you Do you live for the future, the present, the past? If there is one thing I know, I know I will die If anyone cares, some stranger may critique my life I may be revered or defamed and decried I tried to live right There would be songs sung by a choir I would have a white robe, a halo newly acquired I'd be at peace and I'd have no desire If I'd lived right
