Absolution

People come to the church in times like these for answers, but I have none
Most words seem to fall empty, but I'll try
It's a horrible thing that no one should have to go through
Losing a friend, at such a young age
You know, or you should know, that he's in a better place
We'll always ask ourselves
If there was something more that could've been done
That's natural

Do you ask yourself that, Father?

Me?

He went to you for guidance
You hid behind a screen
Knowing how much empathy might mean
Did you know how much he loved?
Did you know how much he cared?
Lost in the teachings was a boy
So all alone and scared
Father, we were so in love
And that's what I find so odd
Our love was pure
And nothing else brought me closer to God

I'm sorry, Peter

And I forgive you, Father
