A black shadow covers me so dark and so cold
I'm searching for a reason, an answer to be told.
How did it find me, how long has it looked?
what did it taste that has it so hooked?
My smile has begun to fade, it is nearly all gone.
How did I get here, what is it I did wrong?
My heart is beating erratically to a beat I do not know
I feel my happiness fade as my anger begins to flow.
To my knees I fall, I am looking for an assist
I am screaming to God as I'm clenching my fist.
God, can you hear me, is there anyone there?
I have needed you so long, do you even hear my prayer?
I am looking for guidance, some hope, a small little sign
I sob in desperation, waiting for you love within me to shine.
I await the answer, I cry and I plead
Please won't you help me, it is you that I need.
