Repentance

Never could move the stars Can’t budge the milky way When the lights are gone And my friends move on You love me I built my kingdom high A babel of modern day I lost the throne I built on my own You loved me just the same This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home Give me the grace to die Commencing the dawn of day No higher truth or fading youth Can move me like you do This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home I built my kingdom It collapsed at my feet I nurtured my idols They betrayed me And I saw you standing on my prodigal street mouthing “I love you”, my boy When the stars all fade on my golden road And my income fails to carry me home I see you standing with your finest robe Saying I love you When Every Idol fails to comfort me And my own skin and bones is stripped off of me I’m gonna look at the holder of eternity and scream I love you This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home This is my repentance I’m sorry, I love you, I’m coming home
