My Sins

I lay my sins bare at your feet

My only hope is that you’ll hear

For you’re the one I wronged

And I doubt I’ll ever find salvation

If only I could turn back time

And bring myself to understand

Just what it was I was caught in

And the damage I would do

In sacrificing what I held dear

I don’t ask for forgiveness

Only understanding

And a chance to clear my conscience

And learn from my failings
