I Won't
I can't keep doing this every day
I can't keep this charade
I need to see You here with me
To see why I was made
I know You're up there in the sky
I know You love me so
I scream for You to take me out
I'm drowning down below
I stretch my hands to touch Your face
I strain so hard I cry
But even though I try my best
I can't. You're up too high
So now I lay here on the floor
A mess of dark and light
The light so dim I fear it's death
As daytime turns to night
I sleep the night away so numb
I can't see right from wrong
I sin and sin and sin and sin
And then, I hear Your song
It wakes me from darkened trance
I see how far I've run
I feel the light that comes with day
With light I see the Sun
And once again I live my life
Until at once I don't
I reach for you, but fall asleep
The Son will rise, I won't
