I Have Forgiven Jesus lyrics

I was a good kid

I wouldn't do you no harm

I was a nice kid

With a nice paper round

Forgive me any pain

I may have brung to you

With God's help I know

I'll always be near to you

But Jesus hurt me

When he deserted me, but

I have forgiven you Jesus

For all the desire

He placed in me when there's nothing

I can do with this desire

I was a good kid

Through hail and snow

I'd go just to moon you

I carried my heart in my hand

Do you understand?

Do you understand?

But Jesus hurt me

When he deserted me, but

I have forgiven you Jesus

For all of the love

He placed in me when there's no one

I can turn to with this love

Monday - humiliation

Tuesday - suffocation

Wednesday - condescension

Thursday - is pathetic

By Friday life has killed me

By Friday life has killed me

Oh pretty one

Oh pretty one

Why did you give me so much desire

When there is nowhere I can go to offload this desire?

And why did you give me so much love

In a loveless world

When there is no one I can turn to

To unlock all this love?

And why did you stick me in

Self-deprecating bones and skin?

Jesus do you hate me?

Why did you stick me in

Self-deprecating bones and skin?

Do you hate me?
