Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Father, be seated and hear my confession
A simple pursuit has become an obsession
I saw it but once, now I must possess it
If I gave you my soul, would you burn it or bless it?
[Verse 2]
I carry this load, an invisible cross
Which rests on my shoulders, the burden of loss
It slipped through my fingers, but maybe I'm mad
'Cause how could I lose something I never had?
[Chorus]
I wanted you so bad, I almost could taste it
But since you don't love me, my whole life seems wasted
I knew from the get-go, yeah, but I never faced it
And it drained my emotion, and nothing replaced it, no
[Verse 3]
I have no addiction as most people know it
If I needed skunk, I could buy it or grow it
And smack and cocaine are not hard to acquire
But my drug of choice is a hopeless desire
[Chorus]
I wanted you so bad, I almost could taste it
But since you don't love me, my whole life seems wasted
I knew from the get-go, but I never faced it
And it drained my emotion, and nothing replaced it, no
