The storm rages on inside,
Battling the demons in my mind,
My heart is torn in pieces,
From the life I’ve left behind.
I want to begin to heal,
To find my way back to the start,
To learn to live life once more,
Feel the joy of love in my heart.
I reach for the hand of God,
Begging for mercy on my soul,
Please save me from myself, Lord,
Give me guidance, make me whole.
What is the truth, the answer?
Is it hidden deep within?
Am I blinded by ignorance?
Is this my mortal sin?
Why is my heart cold, lonely?
Have I grown dead inside?
Why has love abandoned me?
Left to perish by the road side.
Why does the pain I feel,
******* my body so,
Paralyzing my being,
Keeping me from letting go.
