DARK SERMON lyrics : "Imperfect Contrition"

The eyes of the heavenly father
Rest heavily upon my chest
I can feel their judging gaze

Piercing through my flesh
I stab at my reflection
Hoping to end it all

I don't recognize the man I see
But from what I can recall
I have lived a life of shame and self-disgust

The eyes of the heavenly father
Rest heavily upon my soul


I hate myself
And the things that I've done
And the life I've been forced to endure

Forced to endure
I anhor the man I've become


These hands have carried out the evilest of deeds
This mind has been occupied and demonized by an entity
That this earth has never seen

On my innocence it feeds
Through the fire and brimstone it leads


I reflect on the years of my life
With great disdain
I can't claim a life of virtue

Myself I'd sooner maim
I refuse to walk on
Continue broken and bent

I feel remorse for the life that I've lived
All I can do is repent for he carries with him
Pestilence and famine


For restitution I plead
Repent

For restitution I plead
Repent
