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 |
