I Sold My Soul
I lost a part of me today . . . a part of me that I held so close
I broke a memory into a million pieces,
A memory of love, a love I compared to my love for the Lord
So deep, so pure, so innocent
I sit in pain, body and soul aching . . . dying to cry, but
Holding it in
As to not feel weak
I'm broken, a piece of me dead and gone, vanished
An unfair trade of my soul for sheer pleasure
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to kill you
I didn't mean to cause you misery, I didn't mean to see you
Dying
And not save you
I'm sorry, so sorry
