With sin in my heart
I respectfully decline.
While actions are a part,
All thoughts are mine.
Since faith alone remains
I'll push to be better.
Master of my domain
Means walking on water.
Daniel Coleman Jul 2011
I am a child in danger;
Candy from a stranger,
But it's better than that.
I am a man insistent
The only way to prevent
Is not going back.
I am a friend afflicted.
The gypsy predicted,
No changing that.
I am a soldier of justice,
Wishing it was just us
Never catching slack.

A beautiful notion,
Eternal devotion,
But it's not by design.
Love's real intention
Might be prevention
Of losing your mind.

God Himself did tell you
If you'd listen to what He said
This life has no preview
For when you end up dead.
This life is your testament
To what you always meant.

God Himself did tell you
If you'd've listened to what was said
The difference between bad or good
Is the direction you could've led.
It's the decision to rise up tall,
Or the way you take the fall.

I know you won't forgive me,
But there's still hope for that.
I know our love is twisted,
So let's untwist it yet.
You say that life is wicked
And there's nothing to forget;
Then baby lets get toasted
And do something we'll regret.

Flying over a river,
Looking into the sun.
One word from the ancients
Questions what we've done.
The devil may cry
and so may I,
But that's not indicative
of any of our crimes.
Though the world pretends to listen
Too few heed the wisdom
For a hope of any kind.
Daniel Coleman Jul 2011
He told me
He forgive you
And so should I.
He told me
Life is too short
To live with anger
Because you die.
He told me
He wasn't perfect,
And even though he tried,
He told me
He often came up short
But he always tried.
He told me
All the answers
Couldn't change his fate
But that free will
Would eventually prove
Him right.
