Astray
Redemption's Cry: A Journey from Darkness to Hope
Lyrics
I look inside myself again
I engage in introspection.
I'm only blinded by my sins
My vision is clouded by my wrongdoings.
Things I've done I know for sure you can't forgive
I acknowledge actions unforgivable by you.
If I hold on I'll go insane
If I persevere, my sanity may be at risk.
Toss aside what does remain
I discard what little remains.
Will you pick me up and pull me from this grave
Seeking your assistance to lift me from despair.
I'm broken
I am emotionally shattered.
Still falling down
Continuing to descend into despair.
Forced to find a way
Compelled to discover a solution.
To get out of this mess I've made
To rectify the mess I've created.
And only you can
Only you possess the ability.
Do this for me
Plead for your intervention.
Pick me up again
Requesting to be lifted once more.
I'll never go Astray
Commitment to avoid straying.
STRAY
Reiteration of the commitment not to stray.
STRAY
-STRAY
-I'll never go A
-STRAY
-STRAY
-STRAY
-Will you put your weapon down
Request to disarm and communicate.
Come inside and hear me out
Invitation to listen and understand.
I could really use your healing now
Expressing a need for healing.
I've not been perfect
Admitting imperfection.
But this war it still has purpose
Finding purpose in an ongoing struggle.
Won't you pick me up and dust me off
Pleading for assistance and restoration.
To save me from this hell
To be rescued from a personal hell.
I'm broken
Emphasizing emotional brokenness.
Still falling down
Continued descent into despair.
Forced to find a way
Compelled to seek a solution.
To get out of this mess I've made
Addressing the self-created mess.
And only you can
Highlighting the exclusive ability to help.
Do this for me
Repeating the plea for intervention.
Pick me up again
Requesting to be lifted once more.
I'll never go Astray
Reiteration of the commitment not to stray.
Pick me up again
-I'll never go Astray
-I"LL NEVER
Emphatic declaration of non-straying.
I"LL NEVER GO ASTRAY
Repetition of the commitment in a different form.
NEVER WALK AWAY
Commitment never to walk away.
NEVER GO
Avoidance of straying emphasized.
I'll never go
Reaffirmation of not straying.
I'm broken
Reiteration of emotional brokenness.
Still falling down
Continued descent into despair.
Forced to find a way
Compelled to seek a solution.
To get out of this mess I've made
Addressing the self-created mess.
And only you can
Highlighting the exclusive ability to help.
Do this for me
Repeating the plea for intervention.
Pick me up again
Requesting to be lifted once more.
I'll never go Astray
Reiteration of the commitment not to stray.
Never go Astray
Final affirmation of not straying.
