I was your hope but I let you down

No remorse as they laid you down

So much more I could have done

My Lord knows I should have done

The answers escape me once again

Overwhelmed by indecision once again

I rose today expecting change

I sleep tonight expecting change

Will I wake the man they hoped for

Or with the peace I always hoped for

Leaving the darkness behind me

Never again looking behind me

Redemption can’t be earned, just accepted

This life was given to me, I just accepted
