Imperfect Contrition |
The eyes of the heavenly father rest heavily upon my chest |
I can feel their judging gaze piercing through my flesh |
I stab at my reflection hoping to end it all |
I don’t recognize the man that I see, but from what I can recall |
I have lived a life of shame and self-disgust |
The eyes of the heavenly father rest heavily upon my soul |
I hate myself and the things that I’ve done |
And the life I’ve been forced to endure |
I abhor the man I’ve become |
These hands have carried out the evilest of deeds |
This mind has been occupied and demonized by an entity that this earth has |
never seen |
On my innocence it feeds |
Through the fire and brimstone it leads |
I reflect on the years of my life with great disdain |
I can’t claim a life of virtue |
Myself I’d sooner maim |
I refuse to walk on |
Continue broken and bent |
I feel remorse for the life that I’ve lived |
All I can do is repent |
For he carries with him pestilence and famine |
For restitution I plead |
For restitution I plead |
Repent |
