Anger

Anger you're a bitter friend
You stabbed me in the back again
Tricking me with fantasies
Of vindication, satisfaction
Slipping on that yoke of pain
You steal from me with twisted gain
Robbing days and precious gifts
That are wrapped in earthen packages

Why do you lie in your pride?
Revenge is most sweet when it dies
Don't let that bitter root hide
For there is life on the other side

Sleepless nights my mind replays
Waiting for apologies
I've been wronged, does no one see?
My soul cries out, "how can it be?"
Will it ever be okay?
I've lost what cannot be repaid
Forgiveness seems like just a word
You say to push the pain away

Until you see him on that cross
Naked and bleeding and bruised
Bearing the blows for the sins
Crying, "abba, father, forgive them"

"Oh, I will bear those blows
Oh, punish me for them
Oh, I will take the pain
Oh, punish me for them"
