Pain

I see no joy in you
And I feel no joy in me
So what have we to say
When all I can do is pray

You can’t run and hide
When forgiveness steps aside
And judgements final tide
Will wash this blood denied

Never asked what you needed to know
Couldn’t get how you want to go
Had to be pushed out of life
To feel this mortal strife

Can’t say what you wanted to see
Wouldn’t change to what you needed to be
Never want my sin to last
To throw away this guilty past

My human face is pain
The human race is lame
Who are you going to blame
When all you feel is shame

The human disgrace is pain
Have all of you gone insane
Who did you think would die
If all we do is lie

Love is a choice and I choose you…
