Strayed

Oh Lord how I yearn for you
But I felt betrayed by you
So I strayed away from you

As I child I worshiped you
I knew that only you could
Take me away from this poverty
And into eternal glee

After being beaten and raped growing up
I just threw up.....
I gave up

I felt alone and abandoned
To young to understand the footsteps in the sand
I thought I was just damned

Oh Lord how I yearn for you
But I felt betrayed by you
So I strayed away from you

The devil came for me
The temptation overwhelmed me
Blasphemy was in me

So many things I've done
So much wrong I have committed
Just to make me feel good again

The envy of others
I should have been happy
But empty was all I felt

Oh Lord how I yearn for you
But I felt betrayed by you
So I strayed away from you

Now I realize more than ever
How I need you... How I want you
But what can I do

To afraid to come back to you
I was gone to long
The hope of a better life with you
Is the only hope I have left
If I came to you and was led astray again
What hope would I have then

Oh Lord how I yearn for you
But I felt betrayed by you
So I strayed away from you
