Alone in this valley of darkness I’ve strayed
I hear all my demons beginning to bay
Oh lord you know how i begged them to stay
But Left to my vices I pushed you away
When down on my knees I finally did pray
It seems you had nothing left here to say
Abandoned by god
I died on that cross
Alone with my shepherd
Unburdened yet lost
Deny me your wisdom
Deny me them gates
St Peter would scoff
If he saw my damned face
I couldn’t keep clean no I could not stay pure.
These sins aren’t forgiven of that I am sure
Captive to anger a slave to my rage
Imprisoned and tortured alone in my cage
I thought I could move on
With wisdom comes age.
Blue skies are clouded fading to gray
The green grass has all but withered away
I dream of your light I dreamt of that day
Yet all that consumes me is nothing but hate
Wayward this soul denying my fate
I’m broken, I’m shattered, is it too late?
Abandoned by god
I died on that cross
Alone with my shepherd
Unburdened yet lost
Deny me your wisdom
Deny me them gates
St Peter would scoff
If he saw my damned face
I prayed for your mercy, but i have been cursed
I questioned the devil who has it the worst
I wish for a fire to burn everything.
Take away paradise, take away my verses
Like Osiris’s fall, just leave me in Dis
Deny me your Eden , Drowning in the abyss, How long do I suffer Until we are even
My demons have come to lead me astray
Forsaken by god, he’s stricken my name
Refused by your shepherd deny me thy rod Absolve me of grace I’d rather be lost
Cover my body with his sacred dirt
Read the good book and say a few words
But leave me to rot in this coffin of sin
Out where the devils welcome me in.
Abandoned by god
I died on that cross
Alone with my shepherd
Unburdened yet lost
Deny me your wisdom
Deny me them gates
St Peter would scoff
If he saw my damned face
