Prejudice and pain
So much heartache it leaves a stain
that tries to feast on my soul
Tries to take my life
Let go of Old
Your name is New
I married a smile before I laid with that whoreish frown
You can have her
You can Delight in him
Let go of Old
Your name is New
You must not know that time is short
You must not know the suffering because of you
Sacrifices of love made for you
Your actions are the only things you deem worthy
Forgiveness poured upon you
Your judgment is harsh and strict
You close and lock the door
Swallowing the key
You say no one worthy of entry
Not Even you
Let go of Old
Your name is New
Look in the mirror and see the liar
Look in the mirror and see the cheat
Turn on the light and behold the thief
Turn around and see the pardon
Turn around and see the freedom
Let go of Old
Your name is New
There is reason and willing to and for
Forgiveness
Why
Do you still
Point out
Pass out
Hold onto
Blame
Your heart is willing
But your mind won't...
Let go of Old
Your name is New
