I Shall



I shall die a thousand times when I cry for you

It's how hard I'll try that I shy away from who I've become

while jobs undone, but I want to try for you

This is a day that I will say that I became a new, man

that understands that resentments hold true

But know and comprehend none will be held for you

For I have know compassins embrace with a look

apon your face

I've relized while amazed how we've fallen far from grace

So now I ask while I pray that these demons

stay away and heaven allows through

If only to seek forgiveness

So my heart and eternal soul can find it's way back to you
