Pain and blindness
I hated with a passion
Now that rage is drained
And the bitter wounds are gone
Leaving only fading scars
Love give me a second chance
I plead for mercy, for reassurance
God knows I lost myself in the sinfulness of my own little world
My arms ache with the burdens I held
By not letting go of the lust and blame
I let myself grow into a monster
Bathing in my foolish thoughts
I thought I knew better, that I knew what was right
I fought until I couldn't any more
Held on until I lost site of the shore
Love you never let me fall
though I threated to pull you in
I was an animal who couldn't see
You held me tight
even when I would make you bleed
My thoughts have been hard to control
I wrote my evil heart out
Hoping you would give up and fall
I hope they can forgive me as I am now
That I can spread my wings and sing
This little girl, as a person, wants to thank you
I will think of you as I give myself up to the crown
And I pray when my sentence is passed
That our friend ship will last
My tears are joyous now
And dust covers the ground
Where I chased you for miles
And what I never had, I have found
Peace, Rest, and Love
God give me strength to keep it
So as the jury decides
Love, through the lies
I will always have hope now
My faith will hold me when I'm down
hold my hand, here they come
Our hearts are beating like drums
Please know, no matter what
I love the new life I have now,
I'm at peace with my soul
And my flesh no longer has chains to bind me
I am no longer mean, no longer angry
As the judge steps up
we hold our breath collectively
And for a second I am scared
thinking how I dared
to let my self feel like this.
But as that moment goes bye
I don't give in, and except who I am
in a single breath my fears dissipate
The crowed is in awe
and it takes a lot of faith
But my heart is full when I finally hear
The verdict is Not Guilty
