DbIn the time of my Bbmconfession, in the Dbhour of my deepest Bbmneed When the Dbpool of tears Bbmbeneath my feet flood AbeveryAbsus newbornAb seed There's a Dbdyin' voice Bbmwithin me Dbreaching out someBbmwhere, Db Bbm Ab Asusb Ab Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair. Don't have the inAb7clination to look bDback on any mistAbake, Like Cain, I now Ab7behold this chain of eDbvents that I must brAbeak. In the Dbfury of the mBbmoment I can Dbsee the Master's hBbmand In evDbery leaf that tBbmrembles and, Abin everAbsusy grain of Dbsand. DbOh, the flowers of Bbmindulgence and the Dbweeds of yesterBbmyear, DbLike criminals, they have Bbmchoked the breath of cAbonscienceAbsus and good Abcheer. DbThe sun beat down Bbmupon the steps of Dbtime to light the Bbmway ToDb ease the pain of Bbmidleness and the AbmemoryAbsus of decAbay. AbI gaze into the Ab7doorway of Dbtemptation's angry Abflame AbAnd every time IAb7 pass that way I Dbalways hear my Abname. ThenDb onward in my Bbmjourney I Dbcome to undeBbmrstand DbThat every hair is Bbmnumbered like Abevery grain of Dbsand. DbI have gone from rags to Bbmriches in the Dbsorrow of theBbm night DbIn the violence of a Bbmsummer's dream, in the cAbhill ofAbsus a wintryAb light, In the Dbbitter dance of Bbmloneliness Dbfading into Bbmspace, In the Dbbroken mirror of Bbminnocence on Abeach AbsusforgottenAb face. AbI hear the ancient Ab7footsteps like the Dbmotion of theAb sea Ab Ab7 Db Ab
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
DbI am hanging in the Bbmbalance of a Dbperfect finished Bbmplan Like eDbvery sparrow Bbmfalling, like Abevery grain of sDband
