Analysis of Refusing Communion
I won't say I'm sorry
I've lost faith in all
and those who lost faith in me
I won't repent for sins
Temptation is far too strong
I won't resist
There's no man or god with power enough
to rid me of my ills
I'll stand the test in fire
and they'll forge a new h*ll
in my imperfect image
