Confessor lyrics

They come in the night

In interludes of silence

Some in alcohol's influence

To seek a confessor

Crimes unknown, unlabeled

Yet bearing a heavy load

Hidden but omnipresent

Surfacing like sewage ripe

The dying creep along it

A long road of redemption

Seeking absolution direct

For an impending change

In these moments presiding

The frailties of men awaken

Their voices in pleading tones

Bated in regret unresolved

Alas, alas be ever prudent

In word, in act, or in deeds

Sorrow's corona weighs heavy

While searching a confessor
