lyrics

All the messianic promises that you're coming back seem to feed the fleeting faith that I sorely lack, but seeing as I've found neither cause nor call, is it better to trust blindly or simply to trust not at all?

So I'll make atonement to you for all my sins and I'll let you be the judge and try my blood and skin, because I stand condemned of trying to bring you down, with my filthy hands on your heavenly wings and my leaden feet stuck on the ground.

I've made my penance, but still no forgiveness from you, so what in the hell do you want me to do? It leads me to question how useful a savior can be when you can't even redeem yourself to me.

All you've given to believe in is the fact that you'll be leaving, but is it shameful to say I might not miss you anyway? Between the mercy you've shown others and the castigation that I've suffered, if this is what they call heaven, maybe I'm not in need of saving.
