Father, Abba

Luke A, Fink

You see me
Ruining my life
You see my
Desperate lies
You see me
Running from you
You see me
Becoming the vile
You see my
Evil that I have become
You see my
World become undone
You see me
Yet you leave me to my devices
Of eternal failure and blame
I have not yet given into the madness
For Father I still call on your name
So no matter my failures
No matter my strife and hell
I still know your with me all the while
