Tears Roll

Tears roll
And my voice is choked
Knowing the truth
Of my demise
All throughout my life
I've screamed at the knife
Held at my throat
In threat and anger
I've had doubts
But I know there is proof
Christ was not a stranger
My life was never perfect
Filled with remorse
And great regret
I tried to expose the lies
Both told by me
And that of others
There is a blanket of shame
Covering me in a disguise
It was a cloak of fear that terrorized
Eliminating my hope,
And every dream
Now I am ready
The unjust world is not a secret
Nor could it ever be kept
I am ready to leap
Into the great emptiness
The abyss awaits me
