just ask

I have seen some things
things I should not have seen
I have done some things
things I should not have done
I have been the cause of things
things that have had terrible consequences
I have driven straight towards the oncoming train
when I had every opportunity to avoid it
the only advantage I can see
against these self-inflicted stumbles
is a belief in a man who died
two thousand years ago and promised to
absolve me of all the stupid shit I-ve done
if only I ask
