Please, I am begging you,

Forgive me.

I know I must have done something to deserve this.

Maybe I am still doing it,

I know

Forgive me!

There is nothing else for me,

just you and my faith

All the rest is just emptiness

everywhere I look.

I have faith in your way,

it is your path that I want to make mine.

But I will never know how.

My soul is aching.

The pain too strong for me,

The burden too much.

I'm afraid I'm not worthy to carry your burden.

I do not know what to do with it.

Please, forgive me,

and take it away from me!

Put me back down

I am too human to survive at this height

without air.

Can't you see? Can't you see?

I am too small and tormented

too weak to be able to hold on to these wings

Just forgive me now!

Let me be a little happy again

a little earthly happiness, the kind that I know.

Don't ask me to fly again!

I am afraid.

Don't ask anything from me

I can't do anything.

I cannot be what you want me to be.

And I have been trying,

you know I have.

I have been trying so hard!

But now I cannot even move a finger to reach you.

Why can’t I see you?

You know what?

I am not going to look anymore.

Just forgive me

and let me go!
