Willful Sins

You look at me…what do you see
A thousand anvils still lay at my feet
I feel the burden of words left unsaid
Finding solace in a hope I never had

How do you keep on living when the cycle never ends
How do you keep from breaking…I’ve cashed out all I can

My decisions…my choices to bear
The right from wrong…does it matter… should I care
I feel it rattling…piercing through my brain
To a heart that’s soulless living in shame

How do you numb the pain with the nail that’s in your head
Is it easier to stay this way…do you take it out instead

CHORUS:

(I’m) purging me all of my willful sins
Gonna put a stop to this tailless spin
It’s a choice I gotta make…gonna make it today

There’s no one to blame for my willful sins
It’s never too late to begin again
It’s a path I gotta take…gonna take it today


Bearing witness to what life could be
Of how it was…just how it’s supposed to be
A price to pay…a consequence of will
A clear conscience…my sanity instilled

There’re only so many chances there’s a finite set of days
You only have one lifetime it’s the one you got today

(Repeat Chorus)

BRIDGE:

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide

You look at me…what do you see
A broken spirit…Let your light shine on me

(Repeat Chorus)

Forgive me all of my willful sins
My salvation’s on the brink
It’s a choice I gotta take…Just to make thru the day
There’s no one to blame for these willful sins
It’s never too late to begin again
It’s a path I gotta take…gonna take it today
