My ***** List

Do you think you know me when you look me in the eye

I've made my mistakes I won't lie

Here is the list of people that I have hurt

While I selfishly crawled through the dirt

I have seen rage in the eyes of my dad

I know I made him angry but worse than that I made him sad

In my mom I have seen a complete loss of trust

All because I wanted to feel that wonderful rush

With my daughter I seen fear while she cried

The pain in her eyes made me wish I had died

I dragged them down the path of hell right beside me

All the time my selfishness made them difficult to see

I thought I was alone as I walked into Hell

But I know now because of me they are here as well

Unlike my lonely decent together we will rise

I will replace the rage and distrust I see in their eyes

I will remove the fear in which my daughter is in slaved

I know now that I can and want to be saved
