Theme ID: 3617
Album: N/A


All the malice I've felt

toward the people who've hurt me

was a dark lonely hole

where I ended up dirty



trying to make sense

of what's fair and what's ugly

So I drew my conclusions

and I stated them smugly



When the adrenaline rush

of the wave of rage passes

and I'm cold in that hole

and there's mud on my glasses



I don't care anymore

to issue all my subpoenas

or seek revenge on my foes

fulfill my grave-like agreements



CHORUS

Though the world is a winter

growing colder and colder

I remember the warmth

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder



In my nightmares I've seen

all the wrath and destruction

of my dark enemy

and his lethal deduction



that if I've ever felt helpless

if I've ever felt fearful

then he had right to accuse

pierce my side with his spear full



CHORUS

But when I was shamefully weak

and knew I should have been bolder

I was strengthened again

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder



BRIDGE

It's not my duty to judge

There's another who does so

I am asked to forgive

to release and to trust though



It's not my duty to die for the

sins I've committed

I'm allowed to run free

I've been fully acquitted



CHORUS

All the days of my life

and when I'm years and years older

I'll remember the day

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder

All the days of my life

and when I'm years and years older

I'll remember the day

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder

when my Father laid His hand on my shoulder
