Drug me to sleep, It’s the only way now. I have thoughts so deep, That rest won’t allow. Guilt and hate stir in my brain, Words and actions that strangle me dry. A year of depression now has gone by, My heart will forever carry the pain. I cannot win this war of attrition, I give up and give in, I curl up to offer my submission, My life is broken with sin. I only have one saving grace, The hope that God may shine upon me with His face. I don’t have anyone to live for but the Lord, To continue on to see what He has for me stored.

Mercy Please
Drug me to sleep, It’s the only way now. I have thoughts so deep, That rest won’t allow. Guilt and hate stir in my brain, Words and actions that strangle me dry. A year of depression now has gone by, My heart will forever carry the pain. I cannot win this war of attrition, I give up and give in, I curl up to offer my submission, My life is broken with sin. I only have one saving grace, The hope that God may shine upon me with His face. I don’t have anyone to live for but the Lord, To continue on to see what He has for me stored.
I call mercy. Uncle. I give up. You win. Here’s my white flag.
