Repentance

Every sin has it's price...

Standing on the edge of the cliff
Looking out amongst the sky
The wind against my face
The sun glaring upon my eye

Feeling at peace
For once in my life
Memories of the past cut deep
A bit like a knife

From above the city I stand
Thinking hard about the past
Wishing I'd never done wrong
Maybe then i'd make it last

He gave me this life
Asking only for the best
But instead I rebelled
Acting just like the rest

If only i could take it back
Never again would i go wrong
Maybe then I could prove
And join in on the song

Their lives down here are short
Only able to see so much
But who better am i to say this
For i stand on a crutch

Relying on the pain of others
To simply make up for my own
But that gets you nowhere
As I've vaguely shown

So here i stand amongst this cliff
With nothing but my tears
No longer will I be afraid
Nor hindered by my fears

Taking one step off I begin to see
My life, My worth...it all begins to show
It's then that i realize
I was nothing but a foe

I then begin to fall
Staring down at the ground
No longer will i be that enemy
No longer shall i be bound

I stare at the ground
Seeing it come closer to me
A smile forms on my face
As I realize i'll be free

Just before I hit the ground
I look up to the sky
Almost feeling holy now
once again I can fly

Just before i hit the ground
With my only last breath
I utter the words I've wanted to say
"Finally Free from Death"

I lay against the ground
With nothing but a smile
Finally vie done it
It was definitely worth while

The sky turns black
As well as everything within
No longer will i be a foe
And no longer shall i sin
