Take it all
God
Take every ounce of what I am
Let me fall
God
Nothing can save me this time
I’ve knelt down before you on several occasions
You ignore me
I swear to you
That’s a sin, isn’t it?
I don’t think you’re listening
Break me down
God
Stand over me mockingly
Show the world what I’ve become
God
A pathetic excuse for a human being
I whispered sweet nothing in your ear
I said I loved you
You never responded; no, you never spoke a word
Perhaps ignorance is bliss
Silence me
God
Maybe silence would work best
Burn me through and through
God
I’m cold and empty
I’m on my knees again, here
I’m looking up while you look down
Can you see the tears?
God?
Can you see inside I’m dying?
Let me disappear
God
Let me fade into the void
**** my dreams
God
For I’ve mourned before,
And I know how this life goes
We live and we die
We’re supposed to make a change in the world, somehow
Maybe change would happen if you came down off your throne
God?
Do you exist?
God?
Why haven’t you shown up?
What have you been doing all this time?
God?
Do you think I’m giving up?
Maybe you’d be right
Maybe I’ll hold on
Maybe just tonight
I’ll fight until the dawn
Give me hope
God
As you can tell, I’m so confused
Please, let me disappear
God
Maybe I could find you in the emptiness
Should I hold on to what I’ve yet to receive?
Perhaps there would be hope in the unknown
