Careful not to fall, walking evenly
But upon my soul was etched
I drank from the cup of life greedily
And the inner demons chased me for days
As the raging fire soaked the burnt earth
There I stood, alone and exhausted
I knew, I just knew
They'd catch me, I was running out of time
The fire around me grew so hot, it left a haze
The pain shot through me like electric current
My mind was aware of my crimes, I was wanted
For those crimes I could never undue
I was a criminal, corrupt from the inside
But my soul was cleansed in the end
By a redeeming power
I begged for forgiveness
And that was the hour
I was able by confession
To be released
