Redemption Now Offered

by Nysa - Sagittarius

you pushed me down
for all the world to see
guess that's your price 
for my loyalty
so while you're tasting sin
and swallowing pain
don't look at me 
to take your blame

when you're willing to surrender
to the guilt you concede
when truth is your reason
lay that blame on me

when you unveil a conscience
and with peace you agree
when love is your constant
then lay that blame on me

you lay me out
in hopes that I'd wilt away
but strength rained down
and love provided shade
so while the pageant of lies
still glow from your tongue
don't blame me for
your crimes done
question your answers
truth has no anger
gather up your words
redemption now offered
