Healing

by Alexis-Ash

We return with our bleeding hearts held in our hands Our broken and fragmented souls There's nothing we can do There is no way to mend ourselves     We try our best- We cut our skin to shreds      Maybe it'll stop the bleeding mess inside our heads We drink our worries away      Only to wake up, still burdened by the day We embrace the highs that don't last and pills that don't pay, fulfill, consummate       To no avail We seek to perfect        Maybe if we try our best... We turn to death as an answer       There seems no other way    I can't stay We look for a purpose In all the wrong places pain to fight the pain, drugs to drown the day, suicide to light the way But it's not enough Still we lay, a bleeding broken mess With nothing left to give, nothing left to say Yet Still He welcomes us home Still He heals The one, true and only way to find unity and peace On our blackest and loneliest days There is a Power That can heal Every single wound you have It just takes a little Trust
