I should be leaner!
I should be cleaner!
I should be kinder!
I should be finer!
I should be taller!
I should be stronger!
I should be nicer!
I should be wiser!
Misleading people’s wrong, I
was weak to need belonging
Because I was so young then
is no excuse for dumbness
No joke, it’s not that funny
I wish I could forgive myself
for what I’ve done to others but I can’t
A damaged reputation
no way you can erase it
I am a new creation
so, why am I not able?
For what I’ve done with others…
I wish I could forgive myself
but I am far beyond most help
I should be leaner
I should be wiser
But I’ll go on, like usual
we all have our excuses
So, we all carry luggage
it makes this life a struggle
But what we need is study
I wish I could forgive myself
to be a jar upon the shelf
How cheap’s the love of people
I need the prayers of Jesus
as deep as this dumb weakness
that keeps and keeps repeating
Yes, human hearts, like mine, are rotten
so, I need God’s divine begotten
I wish I could forgive myself
’cause I’m a star that sadly, fell
I need a helping hand
but I need more than that:
I need a whole-new land
“I make all things new”
A friend in desert lands
The hustling, bustling towns and
this stubborn, troubling power
So, let me climb your tower
for now and every hour
I get a second chance
And then we get to dance
