I can still feel it on me
Though "it" i cant actually see
Even through the passing of Father Time's sands
The deceased man's blood on my hands

Through fear of punishment, i have yet to come clean
For ending the man's misery, and leaving bloody, the scene
I'am the unforgiven, who extinguished his light
Then fled like a dog, under the cover of darkest night

Escaped from the People's wrath, through fleeing, and lies
Though much like Cain*, ive been forced to break all ties
Such is the life I will never know again
As the beginning of my eternal punishment- My secret sin

Though ive escaped the punishment of my peers, and more eternal fate awaits the depraved
As such I must now live with the secret, and take it to my grave
Through all this i know the unforgiving fires of Damnation await,
I wish to save my soul, but by now, it's far too late.

Though legally im innocent, no comfort it brings
For deep in my soul, and my head forever, i hear God's judgement ring.

(*In the Blble, Cain was the first murderer who killed his brother Abel, and was forced to flee home, and forever be a fugitive.)
