lyrics

Forgive me for I have sinned...

I knew from the first day they would catch up,
Without a Virgil guide there wouldn’t be enough,
Lost in my quest to find all and to see,
Being blind to all is just I can be.

Scylla seems to suck away all my pride,
I do not even have a reason for pride to reside,
One of the deadly sins is one among many,
I felt I could do anything I wanted too freely.

Pardon my sins,
Forgive my transgressions.
Cast away my past into a sea of compassion.
Pardon my sins,
Forgive my transgressions.
Cast away my past into a sea of compassion.

Forgive me for I have sinned.

Escaping my fate is the hardest of tasks,
For I must first face the world without any masks,
Resisting the struggles that all my overcome,
But so grand to me even I can’t outrun.

All I ask of you is a speck of forgiveness,
Look over the past, leave a large omittence,
I must be expecting too much from you,
To improve it, there is nothing I can do.

Pardon my sins,
Forgive my transgressions.
Cast away my past into a sea of compassion.
Pardon my sins,
Forgive my transgressions.
Cast away my past into a sea of compassion.

Forgive me for I have sinned.

I call for just one thing more from you,
I have spent a life in pain with all that I do,
To show I can be good and true as dreamed,
Forgive me for I have sinned.
