My Epiphany
Forgive me lord for I have sinned,
its been too many years since my last conffesion
abusin the powers that I’ve been blessed with,
taken the limits of my will and tryin to test it,
deliver with patience my eternal sentence,
I’ll slowly speak every sentence of my penance,
Live my life with new meaning till nightmares turn to dreaming
Im screaming with every cord in my vocals, with your hands so cold in a choke
hold,
My loco motives like a locomotive with no brakes it’s a known fate
And the reason for this guilt was the blood spilt
Another night of free will, I felt like it was me killed
Drinking till my blood filled, so much I think Im drunk still,
I heard the words come out, look outside come on out
A girl lying motionless, beneath the dark night
Something just don’t feel right, her little body took flight
I don’t believe my sight, but your eyes don’t lie
There the truest thing there is and just think, you cover up the truth every time you
blink
But my eyes are wide open as I start to feel the potion slowly eloping me frozen in
fear
Cops are here, drop the beer, no time for tear, run away, get away, any away, cant
stay
And as I run to safety my thoughts start racing, and finally its hits me this guilt that
im facing,
Didn’t even know her but I feel so responsible, but she couldn’t judge me she
just lies un-respondable.
Thank God, that he left her life in the hospital, many mistakes I've made but this
one tops em all,
I’ve thrown my blindness like her body from the balcony, In a way I strangley feel
she fell for me,
And before I follow the footsteps of so many men before me, Ill make sure my
end is sure to come in glory,
Im pouring my heart out, too you , give me the strength it takes now
to put the bottle down… cleanse my lips, never another sip - Amen
