Out of Shame br I walked a million miles br With no aim br At world's end br I leaned forward br Before I came around and returned to my senses br br Foolish pride prevented me from taking a step back, br Into the awkward situation I created out of sin br Embarrassment kept me frozen in fear br Nerve defrosted me and burned a bridge br br I'm proud my consciousness screamed loud br With no apology I took my first steps back br Away from the one that I wronged br I walked through the door br Without looking back br Not even a sorry, sorry was uttered br But I sincerely didn't mean it br br (10-29-08)br br Darrin McMiller Jr.
