1. THE KILLER IN ME

How do You see me
Through Your eyes
Are You ashamed of me
They say You suffered
On the cross
And paid my penalty
Circumstances
Second chances
I live my life on repeat
If You're the God
That they say Your are
Can Your hand reach me?

In a time of my emptiness
Through the faults
Of my wickedness

For the lack
Of my gratefulness
Can You make it stop

I saw You suffer on the cross that night
As I laughed and mocked the sight
I saw the flesh ripped from Your back
I joined the masses, with a heart so black

Was the weeping
And the grieving
Intended for me

I am a killer of the innocent
A growing plague, a pestilence

I am the thorn that chokes the seed
The spiteful crown that made You bleed

When the ground consumes this waste
Remember me in the holy place

I saw You suffer on the cross that night
As I laughed and mocked the sight
I saw the flesh ripped from Your back
I joined the masses, with a heart so black
