Forgiveness

Ever since I saw your denuded flesh I've been jumping the fence But I've reached a limit I can't run anymore All the failures I enherited I've put right, but it's not enough Wake up, look around Catastophy is just around the corner I don't know whom I could turn to I don't know where else to go No more negotiations I appeal to a higher court Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you And I searched for forgiveness For something far worse than I've ever done Driven by disgust But there was none to be found What I'm about to say I've always known But not admitted to myself Bloated, rotten, wretched, decayed Festered is my conscience I don't know whom I could turn to I don't know where else to go No more negotiations I appeal to a higher court Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you Jesus forgives you I ran all night and without knowing it I crossed my own path several times All that just happened will soon be forgotten No one will remember this
