I see myself for who I am,
I'm not the man I should be.
This image in broken glass,
that I can't get half past.
LORD GOD, what is this I see?

What's going to make You believe,
believe in me this once last time?
My soul is torn apart,
crying with all my heart,
this unbearable crime.

I see myself for who I am,
I'm not the man I should be.
The dogman in it's vomit,
the nausea hits my stomach.
LORD GOD, have mercy on me.

Here I am so ashamed,
of what has been done.
Hear my silent prayer,
no longer I want to run.

This sin is so great,
that I can't even sleep.
The prayers I say at night,
words are all so cheap.

I see myself for who I am,
I'm not the man I should be.
An image in the mirror,
not becoming any clearer.
LORD GOD, what is this I see?

I don't want this anymore,
the demons of the past.
I surrender it all,
to You I fall,
to be free at last.

I see myself for who I am,
I'm not the man I should be.
The tears upon my face,
the years of fallen grace.
LORD GOD, have mercy on me.
