new song: scars and tattoos

Scars and Tattoos

Scars remind me

Of the pain

Of my decisions

Of shifting blame

***

Too many sins to name

Too many sins to name

I could be buried

Under the weight

Of my shame

Too many sins to name

***

Tattoos remind me

Of your grace

Of being purchased

Of being claimed

***

Beloved is my name

Beloved is my name

Your Son was buried

Under the weight

Of my shame

Beloved is my name




this song is fresh off the press. i wrote the lyrics this afternoon and the music tonight. there's a story behind it, but you have to leave a comment to hear it.

do you have a tattoo? if so, what is it, where is it, and what does it mean to you?
