Lord, have mercy on my soul.

Take away my pain, take away my hunger.

My body is heavy with the weight I carry, my guilt

It weights my shoulders down, I'm unable to walk with my head held high.

I am walking on top of screws, they dig at my feet and make me bleed.

I never meant to hurt her, it's just the way things turn out.

I just thought I had fallen in love with another.

But now I know, she gave me everything and more.

Her love, her time, my children.

Lord, forgive me because I know she won't.

Free me of my sins, take away my hunger for love, for forgiveness.
