Every night as I sleep
The nightmares of guilt visit me
Clawing at my soul
Leaving bleeding wounds
They bleed down my heart and mind
I taste the metallic blood in my mouth
Reverberating in my soul
Every night as I sleep
A new scar is what in am bestowed
Remorse rending me to pieces
Shadows in my mind continue their turmoil
Shedding tears of contrition will not work
A just punishment for my mistakes I am told
Tearing me asunder as I sleep
The nightmares of guilt are just not done
As karma visits me again and again
Repentance for my sins is a long road
An arduous even I might say
I will pay, yes i will pay
Till my penitence is attained
