Crucify me

I walked down the long road

With a heart that weighed heavy

Every step a struggle, but I continued to go

The journey ahead, unknown and unsteady

But I was so bold, I didn't falter

I made my way down the mile long isle

With every beat of the island drums

I felt my soul ignite, with a fiery smile

I learned to let go.....

As I walked, the world around me

Seemed to slow and come to a pause

And I felt the piercing gazes

Of those who questioned my cause

But I walked on, with a determined pace

And as I passed each judging eye

I made them say a prayer for me

For I was about to be crucified

You stood there, watching me

Doubting how I dare

To walk with my head held high

As if I had no cross to bear

But I was crucified, long before

This journey had begun

I bore the weight of my mistakes

And the scars of what I had done

How long must we dwell on the past?

How long can we carry this pain?

For I am suffering because of you

And my heart, it's hard to contain

I've done everything to prove myself

To earn your forgiveness and trust

But you still hold on to my mistakes

And continue to crucify me with your disgust

I am not your savior, I don't complete you

You don't complete me 

So crucify me for my behavior 

I am not your savior......

I never will be

But you still expect me to be

And for every wrong I've ever done

You keep on nailing me to this tree

But I'll keep walking, down this long road

With every step, I'll shed another tear

For it's not your forgiveness I seek

But my own salvation, from my fear

So crucify me, if you must

For my mistakes can never be undone

But know that I'll keep walking

Till my journey on this road is finally done

So crucify me, I'm waiting.
