[Verse] Our father God, is the judge on the bench, with His piercing gaze. Oh My life's on this trial, playing out in this world's darkened haze. With all of My Sins stacking up, like a file that has grown way too tall. My sins are Echoing turning into guilt, bouncing down this judgmental hall. [Chorus] Ooooo I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! it's screaming deep inside. This mask can hide your face, If you like to play outside where the demons do reside. I wonder Can I ever be free of the crimes that to others i have taught. Or will I bear this weight of this worldly war, That in the 1st place I never wanted to be the one who had to fought. I carry the weight of knowing, I was the one who took away His last breath. My hands are still stained with the blood, in this act of my assisting in his death. Oh I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! [Verse 2] I see the nails, I helped to drive deep. The tears I've sown, The cuts that I have made, and they did seep. The gavel falls hard, as the silence grows Screaming So loud that it eats at me. Feeling wrapped so tight in shame, beneath this starry night sky, Oh what it truly could be. [[Chorus] Ooooo I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! it's screaming deep inside. This mask can hide your face, If you like to play outside where the demons do reside. I wonder Can I ever be free of the crimes that to others i have taught. Or will I bear this weight of this worldly war, That in the 1st place I never wanted to be the one who had to fought. I carry the weight of knowing, I was the one who took away His last breath. My hands are still stained with the blood, in this act of my assisting in his death. Oh I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! [Verse 3] The jury is my conscience, And it knows about all of my deeds. The bible is always reminding me of the truth, like a dart, bullseye on the board, Oh why I just can't concede, Cause this verdict is so very clear, And for me there is no reason for reprieve. My burden is hung on a torture stake, Its the truth so thats what I must believe. [Chorus] Ooooo I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! it's screaming deep inside. This mask can hide your face, If you like to play outside where the demons do reside. I wonder Can I ever be free of the crimes that to others i have taught. Or will I bear this weight of this worldly war, That in the 1st place I never wanted to be the one who had to fought. I carry the weight of knowing, I was the one who took away His last breath. My hands are still stained with the blood, in this act of my assisting in his death. Oh I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! [Bridge] The echoes of sin ring, through eternity’s hall. A thorned crown, it becomes my last call. There is No plea to make my lies Somehow to be able to now to be defended. This guilt runs deeper than my core, it until I get Gods forgiveness none of this will never really end. [[Chorus] Ooooo I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! it's screaming deep inside. This mask can hide your face, If you like to play outside where the demons do reside. I wonder Can I ever be free of the crimes that to others i have taught. Or will I bear this weight of this worldly war, That in the 1st place I never wanted to be the one who had to fought. I carry the weight of knowing, I was the one who took away His last breath. My hands are still stained with the blood, in this act of my assisting in his death. Oh I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty! [Outro verse] The jury said "guilty, we have no doubts!" This one is a sinner, Nothing but a dirty lout. "Stop!" Said the judge, With a booming call. "The victim was my son, this is my choice if this one falls!" "I see true repentance in this ones eyes, I grant them forgiveness, for her honest not her lies." This case is now dismissed. Yes there was Blood that was spilt, but this one has true repentance, so her name has been taken off my list." COURT OVER!! AMEN Chorus] Ooooo I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven! it's screaming so deep inside. This mask no longer hides my face, And now when I go to play outside I make sure I am no where near where the demons do reside. I am free to show God's forgiveness to others, the way i have been taught. Cause he never makes bear the weight of this war, That i never wanted to be the one to have fought. I carry the freedom of knowing, He loves me from my first til my last breath. My hands are now used to knock on doors to tell people about his sons death. Oh I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven, I'm forgiven!
