this pain
is hurting
with each breath i take
each tear drop
spells
clearly
where this pain comes from
hence my regrets
i am learning
from this pain
which i am getting
to know well
this pain
which is hurting
wish i could rid
but isn't pain
meant
to clean one's sins
i hope i'll remember
this pain well
this pain
from which i should be learning
i ask you O God
to forgive me
and i ask you O God
to mercy me
i ask you O God
to grant me sustenance
to endure
this pain
