I Can't Wait

At my age the funerals and weddings start

I've lost my place

The book of youth, I've read it cover to cover

And I've had my share of lovers

And I've had my scares and victories

But the next in the series I've yet to crack the spine

I need my own Jesus christ

But everybody is a judas iscariot

The weight and burden boy well you're gonna carry it

So help me God

This cross I bear is bearing down

The price I pay

If no one's there to help me down off the crucifix

I know you have your reasons for doing this

But let me first make my case for forgiveness

Because it feels like the rest of the world has passed me by

My mind is numb

I bite my tongue

I kissed the son of God and gave up eternity

Selfish and wasteful

So punish me I'm lost and week

The cost I bleed

I'm scared to see what waits for me

But I hope it's not tired of waiting

The tongue of a serpent, the heart of an angel, the victim

Of circumstance

When blood turns to water, forgot how to love turned

My back on my father

Please forgive me
