the whispers of my sins

I watched the sun go down today
And I felt a surge of tears
With a sense of desolation
I was overwhelmed with fears

I saw my hope on the horizon
And I saw it fade away
With desperation I tried to believe
That there would be another day

And then suddenly I realized
That my hope was still there
It was just clouded over
With my feelings of despair

Then I began to wonder
Why am I still here
And in my own self doubt I saw
The creation of all my fear

In order to see the sun come up
I would have to search and find
The courage within my confusion
The strength to heal my mind

All the years of emotional turmoil
Had finally taken their toll
The fight within myself
Was over the worthiness of my soul

i knew that i might lose
Yet I could never win
I was trying to earn a respite
From hearing the whispers of my sins.
