Guilt

I thought guilt was a mountain to be moved

You said guilt is all we’ve ever known,

but lift your eyes and see

Guilt is now, guilt won’t be

Took me by the hand,

led me to the mountains

Tall and solemn, sun hot on them

In their shade I was remade

That I was brought from lowly slum

Now to me but a controlling thumb

I am me, you let me see

I am animal, I am he

I am all that I should be

And all that I have ever been

Had ran from all I should have seen

I thought guilt was a mountain to be moved

Guilt is a foundation long disproved
