As the heavy rain falls down

It seems my world may end

I inhale the water & drown

'Cause it's better than living with what I did


I wish this was holy water

To wash away my sins

But instead this rain makes mud

So thick that I need fins


I don't pray for a life raft

To save my evil soul

Instead I slit my own neck

Creating gills through which to blow


My God, My Father, I do not deserve your grace

I completely understand if you look into my face

As I reach your kingdom's gates

& you banish me to Hell

I will not be surprised 

I won't fight I won't yell


My insides have turned toxic

My gut begins to rot

I won't accept forgiveness

My stomach is a knot


Swelling from the inside

Soon to burst like a balloon

Spraying my wicked ways

Like confetti across the room


I should be quarantined

To protect others from my flesh

But I know that you forgive me

& my slate has been refreshed


There is no amount of gratitude 

To thank you for your love

I will never be worthy

I should be disposed of
