Jen Cass: Music
Forever Damned
I lost my heart when I was 24 years old
I found a man, believed his promises
Bought everything he sold
But there were no guarantees
No cash back refund at the door
It was all there in the fine print
Of the pages I ignored
And I say…
Jesus forgive me I have sinned
I don’t know where I should begin
I made an idol of this man
And now my love’s forever damned
Forever damned…
Am I forever damned?
And it’s a weakness to enjoy so much of you
It’s an unrelenting pleasure that I know I shouldn’t choose
But I cannot breathe without you
I can taste you in the air
And your arms tighten around me
When I know that you aren’t there
And I say….
Jesus forgive me I have sinned
I don’t know where I should begin
I am not following your plan
And now my love’s forever damned
Forever damned…
Am I forever damned?
Still…I’d choose the apple over every other taste
And I would savor that sweet freedom
Letting Eden go to waste
I would still the wings of angels
Just to watch them fall in flight
I would look back while the buildings burned
Although it meant my life
And I say…
Jesus forgive me I have sinned
I don’t know where I should begin
I’ve forsaken everything I am
And now my love’s forever damned
Forever damned…
Am I forever damned?
