A man walking with regret in his eyes
Not caring what goes by.
Well I never seen a sight so dreary 
A man so weary
And shattered in between love and hate.
Give me a reason to hate the wicked
When they deserve love.
Oh, give me a reason to look down
Without the eye of mercy.
And would you give me a reason to hate this man
When he has only made a mistake.
We are all human, sacrificing what we love 
For the things we want.
But I can say that with the weight of my sins
I won't get to fly
From the mess I made, oh
The mess I made.
A woman worries all alone
Wondering what she will do on her own.
Looking to the skies the tears stream down
Like the river she was in; destined to drown.
Scared out of her mind of what will happen next.
Give me a reason to hate the wicked 
When they deserve love.
Oh, give me a reason to look down
Without the eye of mercy.
And would you give me a reason to hate this woman
When she has only made a mistake.
We are all human, we sacrifice what we want
For those we care for.
But I can say that with the weight of my sins
I won't get to fly
From the mess I made, oh
The mess I made.
Now it's my turn to give a confession
The game is now in session.
I made my mistakes and could not find
What I needed because I was blind.
From all the hatred and anger I felt.
Should I give Him a reason to hate what I've done 
When I don't deserve love.
Oh, did I give Him a reason to look down
Without the eye of mercy.
Surely, surely I did give him plenty
My mistakes in numbers of many.
But with his life he sacrificed for love
To clean the messes we made, oh
The mess we had made.

This is a song of sorts that I wrote. Enjoy :heart:

:music:Song of Inspiration - Ed Sheeran - I'm A Mess :music:

And, oh, I've known it for the longest time
And all of my hopes
All of my words
Are all over written on the signs
When you're on my road
Walking me home, home, home, home, home

See the flames inside my eyes
It burns so bright I wanna feel your love, no
Easy baby maybe I'm a liar
But for tonight I wanna fall in love
And put your faith in my stomach
