Here I Am

I thought drinking was the problem,

but maybe I’m addicted to the shame,

so I might try cutting out the middle man;

I thought smoking was the problem,

but maybe I’m hooked on self-disdain,

so I might try cutting out the middle man;

I thought sinning most compelled me,

but maybe it’s kneeling in your name,

so here I am, dear father, here I am.
