Once I... Letra

a trail of tears is all this path has led to, as the darkest hour draws quite near. it's time to face the fact that this won't resolve down through the years. and what I wouldn't give to have an innocent heart once again. I've been marked for life, these hands stained blood red. this doesn't seem real, how can i get this shit through my head? how easy it would be to sleep, how easy it would be to end it all. but no, i will wait for my day of redemption. through the blood, and sweat, through the midst of it all. regret on my shoulders, a gut full of knifes, i still wont fall. until i prove my heart is good, my heart is true. my wings have been torn off, fuck it all i've had enough. and with my last breath i will scream unto the heavens, god grant me redemption...please.
