Just one ray

My clothes are tattered
my hair disheveled
I drag myself ahead
my back bent
and head down with shame

I failed
I failed
I told myself I would never falter again
yet again...

my clothes are covered
with the filth of my sins
my life i feel
is sold to the devil

wounds gushing everywhere
i feel the pain
i want to straighten
yet i do not have the strength

how did i become like this
why did i become like this
am i really so weak
that i cannot control my own destiny?

life moves on
and as i look ahead
i see the dark clouds
the menacing lighting
and the thundering thunder

and i am so desperately
trying to find that ray of sunshine
that will let me know
i will be OK

i will repent
and i will be forgiven
and i will do good once again
and atone my sins...
