I Have to Live

I try my best to ignore bad decisions,
Messages that can't be unsent,
Moves that can't be undone.
So scared of the repercussions.

The trial has already begun.
The error plays all around me
And I'm not sure where to run.
Lord, what have I done?

Just then I heard a door open.
I knew he was home.
I didn't ask for advice,
But complimented him some.

I saw that his skin was flaking
Off the top of his dome.
He had been burned by the sun
In a place where he had hair once.

When I told him what was wrong,
He fed me some coincidental wisdom.
He said, “Son,
That's just something I have to live with today.”
