I hope this is not my final day
I hope this is not where I will stay
My joy has been taken I'm living life alone
With no one else to talk to I'm scared of the unknown
My concience is blistering they fill me with my guilt
I question all they tell me as I cough beneath this quilt
I worry about the future as the sand drips away
I wake and start to wonder if I'll see another day
My body is burning, I can't bring it down
Dirty rags and blankets caress my fevered brow
I could be wrong
I could be right
We'll never know
Until that night
I live my whole life in your grace
I believed it's your love I craved
I wait forsaken for your embrace
I'm all alone here, this final resting place
What do I suffer for? Why do I care?
Why do I look and see only despair?
The footsteps are coming like thunder in my ears
The looks I've been given create dark atmospheres
I try to understand their meaning of life
I try to be brave with the words they recite
The black corner shadow it looms over me
Taking my hand and he says I'll be free
Silence surrounds me I drift off to sleep
I lay my body down and pray my soul to keep
My heart aches
My body wastes
To nothingness
I say goodbye
I live my whole life in your grace
I believed it's your love I craved
I wait forsaken for your embrace
I'm alone here, my final resting place
My wounds will weep
My soul asleep
The darkest night
My soul alight
Came too late
I'm left to wait
The Earth will shake
So soon it breaks
Fire and Lies
My Mother's Eyes
Ten Thousand Tears
Two Hundred Years
