Confessions

Forgive me my sins for I’ve done you wrong
The words come too easily and slip from my tongue
I hurt her everyday to make me feel good
Forget I’m a failure, a loser, a dud
Try and erase my childhood pains and fears
With hers wash away those endless tears

I know now what wrong I have done
I knew it the moment I fired that gun
And saw her eyes close up in fear
And squeeze out, that moment, her last tear
I saw a red river carry her away
Please forgive me; I’ll repent everyday

Please take away her vengeful ghost
Let her play tricks on some other vile host
Tell her to leave me, appease her, please
Before in one moment my spirit she’ll seize
She’ll crush my heart in her icy breath
And then she won’t be the only one to meet their death

I know I deserve this torture today
I know if you’d speak, that’s what you’d say
But I’m sorry I beat her until she was crippled
And just kept on beating while her skin rippled
I’m sorry I hurt so much but now
She’s just taunting and I don’t know how

So please, I’m asking, forgive me, I beg you
Don’t make me feel the breath of death too

**just like to point out - i haven't killed anyone or hurt them**
