Guilt

Unending echoes of screams
Run deep in the canyons of shame
Never ending guilt of gorges
Guilt

With ears covered
Never look over your shoulder
Splashes of water on your face
You can never out run tragedies

Private is your shame
You're pushed over the edge
Seduced by power
That no one knows

Branded by others
By a disease you're contaminated
By things you did not create
You deal with it

Painful is shame
Dawn will never come
Go to the canyon of shame
Invite Christ in

At the darkest night of your soul
Listen while he speaks
Watch what he writes
As he leaves a message

On a cross
Not in sand
With his blood
Not with his hand
