Confessions

I walked through the door, still stuck in a haze

Hadn't seen my wife for days and days

She said, where you been all those nights

Stepped in close and said, look me in the eyes

The devil whispered, son, just tell more lies

But my heart broke down and I realized

Something's gotta change

Nothing's a secret, my whole life's a lie

If I don't come clean, Jesus, I'm gonna die

This is my confession, I can't hide

I've been living in a shadow, swallowed by pride

This is my confession, I won't run

Jesus, have mercy on what I've done

I drank till I stumbled, I smoked till I choked

I betrayed my own family for the demons I chose

I laid with another and I shattered her trust

All my vows turned to ashes, all my love into dust

The truth is a fire that's burning inside

If I don't let it out, it'll be my demise

This is my confession, I can't hide

I've been living in a shadow, swallowed by pride

This is my confession, I won't run

Jesus, have mercy on what I've done

No more chains, no more disguise

I lay it all down, Lord, open my eyes

This is my confession, I can't hide

I've been living in a shadow, swallowed by pride

This is my confession, I won't run

Jesus, have mercy on what I've done

Jesus, have mercy on what I've done
