Murder's Prayer

You take nothing from me and I know you are sincere,

I pray to you each night and I tell you every fear.

Sometimes I may not be pious and I change my ways,

but know that I still love you until the last of my days.

I ask you for forgiveness for all the wrongs in my life

You see, Lord, I've killed someone tonight with a knife.

I was angry, and drunk not to mention a little stressed

so I went to my girl friends house to get it off my chest

When I walked into her place I knew something was wrong

I saw strange shoes in the hall way, a tie and her thong.

I rushed to her bedroom and you know what I seen?

Lord...she was the unfaithful one you know what I mean?

So I rushed to my jacket and I grabbed my knife quick

I took the guy out first the blood made me so sick

You see I was furious with anger and I just couldn't stop

When all of a sudden all the noise had alerted a cop

he was nearby just cruising the street near my car

So I grabbed my jacket and fled the scene to a bar

Lord I drank my sorrows away and now here I am

I've still got blood all over me so I think I will scram

I don't know if you can forgive me but that's really okay

Because I'm still a murderer at the end of this day.
