So many heartaches and too many tears,
Have plagued me throughout all these years.
Why must so much pain be pressed upon me from above
When all I long for is that elusive emotion you call love.
Tortured by the guilt, remorse, and memories of many a crime
Praying for you to take me in my sleep and end it one last and final time.
No penance worthy to forgive me for all that I have done
God help me that I may one day meet your son.
Father, I am no longer the man I used to be
How much longer must I suffer before I am set free.
Who among me can I talk to and know that I can trust?
This pain within is eating me alive, to exit someway, somehow it must.
I beg you, father, please hear my call
So I may know the peace, harmony, and the love that is to be shared with all.
