Penance brings me no resolve
Nor my sins could it absolve
Corruption seeps deep within
I try to fight, but never win
I stand a slave to my dirty deeds
My soul's devoured, and evil breeds
Wickedness creeps into my mind
Steers me wrong and makes me blind
Late at night I sit and weep
For promises I couldn't keep
Help is always what I seek
The spirit is willing; the flesh is weak
What is this shell I'm trapped inside
Where bad begins and evils reside
I ponder why I can't escape
This foul and bitter earthly shape
I ask forgiveness, but expect none
I shouldn't be for what I've done
I couldn't stop my own descent
So here I sit in my lament.
