Fighting Temptation
This guilt I feel consumes me
I want to let it out
But I'm terrorfied of the consequences...
I gave into temptation
And now I pay the price...
I'm so sorry for what I've done
I pray that this isn't the end
I pray that you can forgive me
And we can still have our happily ever after...
One single thought runs through my head
Over and over again...
I know what I need to do
To finally get peace of mind
But once again I'm consumed with fear...
Fear of what you'll think
Fear of what you'll do - what this will mean
I messed up! That's all there is to it!
And all I can say is
I'm so deeply, deeply sorry!
God was testing me
And I failed horribly!
Now I'm living in regret
I'm completely stuck!
Show me where to go from here
Tell me what I'm suppose to do now...
How do I make this right?
I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I'm so deeply sorry!
For this incredibly stupid thing I've done
Now I'm at your mercy...
I can only hope and pray
That you can forgive me
Please stay here with me,
Please dont run away
