The Messiah - Contrition lyrics

For two weeks, I was sitting in the prison cell Iron gates obstruct the way to be free Now, I've enough time to think about my offence This deed was dreadful and I deeply regret it I don't like to talk about the things that happened My mind has drifted to this transgression The pictures of the offence reflect in my brain Only now I'm realizing what I have done Horrible nightmares constantly cross my sleep At the time it's really hard to live in the cell Tears run over my cheeks I've never noticed that before This is a serious situation Never could I imagine I k**ed an innocent girl She had the right to live So I have it too I know that's my crime Although the people Are not blameless I have the chances ruined for my future It will be hard to find a new job My name is murder, it says too much Everybody will get out of my way Lost the power, destroyed my pride My life is ruined, lose my future My mother left me to my fate She will have nothing more to do with me I don't know what the time will bring When I leave the prison in one year
