	That your fed up...defeated at life and who you are, perceived or otherwise. I can relate all too well with how I feel at present.. you are often your worst enemy. "This wicked tongue"...

	It's basically an atheist talking to a Christian. "This wicked tongue says Go on, taste everything" A Genesis reference, basically saying "don't limit yourself, live life to its fullest, regardless of how moral others may deem it." "And the silence rang and rang and rang and rang and rang" She argues with logic, and they have no valid arguments to back up their superstition. Try asking a Christian why they believe what they do sometime, and observe the weak answer they give.
