The Hell That I Deserve

The Hell That I Deserve At the top of a cliff Surrounded by darkness and doubt I see you in the valley Surrounded by a light I can hear the slightest sighs of angels from the valley Drowned out by the screams of my demons There is no pathway down to you The cliff is lined with talon like rocks Fallen angels hold my arms back Holding me against my will All I can do is stand and look down at you You would never hear my screams You would never hear what I want to say I will die on this cliff All alone while you thrive in God’s light I can never meet you Never talk to you Never gently kiss your lips It is true that I have sinned more than once Standing alone on a cliff with you below I know that this is my hell to endure If only the demons would quit screaming I could hear your voice I could hear the sighs of the angels surrounding you Then my hell The hell that I deserve For one moment this cliff would be a paradise
