I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am to be blamed
When my brother goes down
And I turn around
I am ashamed of the Gospel
Because I know they sell
Bibles and song books
And I know it looks
Like its just opium we are on.
Maybe, but it’s Heavenly spun.
With no side affects.
I am ashamed
I am to be blamed
When my brother goes down
And I turn around
I am ashamed that my friend
Has to hold another girl’s hand
Because no one loves her like they should
If you think you could
I would like to try.
Author Note: thinking of all the problems and thoughts others have with the christian faith. though it is really the problems people have with the people who believe in the christian faith.
