Fallen

Never saw the use of trying to fit in

They look at me like a living embodiment of sin

This life has been far from what I would wish

I'm empty, at the brink of something more than this.

Wishing I was someone born into another life

Nothing has connected to me except for pain and strife

Friends will last forever but life will pass away

Home is a word unfamiliar to me

Family is a word from a different universe than mine.

I am a different kind of man than what I was born into

Violence has passed me, peace is my way

Yet I was still living in the world that encourages hate

Now I'm fallen into something new, where I am clean and seen as forgiveness.

No longer the sin of my forefathers

My laugh rings out true and bright

I didn't know I was saved from myself until I died and saw this light.
