With all great highs
Come great lows
Spiritual highs
Are the worst crashes

All or nothing guilt trips
Each sin
A fine line between
Good and bad

Right and wrong
Actions contradicting beliefs
And emotions against behaviour
They're all stacked up

Human turmoil
When the right things feel wrong
And the wrong things feel right
The devil is messing you up inside

It's so hard to walk away
Inner struggle everyday
When you want to give up
And not care

Do what you want
Deal with the consequences later
Until one day you sit and wonder
How did I end up so far

So distant from God
He was everything in my heart
And after chasing what I want
I let go of what I needed

Empty space
A gaping hole
Discontent
And self-loathe

It's a long climb
Trekking back down that road
With a blot on your past
Knocking on the forgiveness door

The love
For this nurture to life
Can be bent
But never broken

So you strayed
Got lost along the way
Separated
But you found your way back

On the straight path
Passed the test
And you're stronger for that
You're future is still spotless

Child don't you know
God loves you even more
His mercy is endless
And He'll welcome you back regardless

True love and acceptance
Take one step toward Him
And He takes ten toward you
Walk His way and He will run to you
