Killing me.

*Forgiveness in the Midst of Terrible Things*

And I will fall on my knees,
and say I'm sorry.

Can you find it within you..
to forgive me?

And if it is..
that love is really true..

Why is it that..
you can break so easily in two?

Lust is such a powerful thing,
Breaking me apart.

Such a wild spark inside..
tearing into my heart.

If God can forgive me..
I hope that you can too.

Falling down onto my knees,
promising to be forever true.

And I fall on my knees..
and scream I'm sorry..
Will there ever be a time,
that you can forgive me?

I don't know why I hurt you,
I don't know why I was untrue.

Adultery, an untrue sin..
the light shines down onto my skin.
The only one God will allow..
you to leave the one you're commited to..
if they stray their eyes and are untrue..

So then I fall onto my knees..
I scream I'm sorry..
And I hope that you will find it in you
to forgive me.

I don't know how to love others,
if I cannot love myself..
Compassion takes ahold of me,
and breathes the breath that I held.

Hurting the one you love the most,
is the most painful thing of all.

Hanging myself would be so easy..
if I knew it wouldn't hurt you.
Slitting my wrists, through my biggest fear..
if I knew it would make me true..

Purity, I once knew..
such a good little one.
A wild thing, grew into me..
Took the songs that I sung.

And I fall onto my knees..
and I scream that I am sorry.
I love you more than anything,
I wish that I could only see.

Blindsighted, sometimes..
in the midst of bad things.
So blindsighted sometimes..
in the midst of bad things.

Through my sin,
through my shame..
take me in,
once again.

Oh whisper, through the wind..
forgive me.

(sidenote, this is a song and it is very operatic, don't try to imagine the melody cuz I'm guaranteeing you're wrong, just ask me.)

I love you.
