presumption of innocence

Proof lies on him who asserts, not on him who denies ~ Julius Paulus Prudentissimus I am selfish and social. Invisible to how my actions may look to you, I see clearly your every false move And seek justice and revenge Feeling intensely the results of your misconduct Yet knowing nothing of how my own misdeeds affect you. I am the victim, Born to justify and excuse myself, exercising perfect judgment When it comes to my own freedom More than I will ever be able to pardon you yours. I am not pointing the finger at you. I am looking at myself.
