Disconnected from reality, trying to escape from the system. Feel like I’m slowly slipping away. I’m fueled by this rage; I need to lift; I need to rise above this cage. All those times I thought my cries went unheard. I was curled up like a baby, shaking and trembling when you found me. You took me in. Whispered my name. You clothed me, soothed me. This is a story of sacrifice. One of great love. A man fulfilling the will of his Father. Obedience to the word. You've forgiven me; why can’t I forgive myself?

Forgiveness
Disconnected from reality, trying to escape from the system. Feel like I’m slowly slipping away. I’m fueled by this rage; I need to lift; I need to rise above this cage. All those times I thought my cries went unheard. I was curled up like a baby, shaking and trembling when you found me. You took me in. Whispered my name. You clothed me, soothed me. This is a story of sacrifice. One of great love. A man fulfilling the will of his Father. Obedience to the word. You've forgiven me; why can’t I forgive myself?
