I was on the edge of jumping
to my fate
but there You were sitting
in the sunrise, so late…

between the rays of grace
sitting and staring upon Your face
You saved me
You saved once again

the false and broken strings of this melody
I can no longer ignore
my heart it felt so dizzy
broken between the waves
of what would seem
like a fast approaching door
a fast approaching floor…
but then I felt
a feather dusting at my heart
lighter than my body weight
would feel in mid air…
it was Your Love, your neverendin’ love,
intervening-
Bridging my way back
to life
jumping my way back to life.
Most of us have reached a point where we thought of suicide - much fewer have actually gone to attempt it, and fewer that pull through with it. When I was in high school, I was sitting on a bridge one day, staring down at the oncoming traffic on the high way, thinking how quick my death will be here. When I looked up, the sunrise was in front of me. The Lord felt very present within it. He lifted my brow, my heart, and I felt very relieved.

Surrounded by people yet all alone
Trapped within this solitary zone
A world where chaos and hate overtake
Every bit of happiness that may try to escape
Laughter and smiles never seem to last
Because we all act like we want to be haunted by memories of our past, than blame each other for the reasons we think we always finish last, maybe we should try and have some class, stop living in these houses built upon glass.
Running, running searching for distance between ourselves and our own ******* resistance, look around at where we are, what the **** is this?
Unless you're the 1 ain't nowhere to go
These days don't reflect life, what is right, everyone is self absorb they don't see the loss of the fight, too many of us just conform, walk like zombies lost in the dead of night, but all heard the warning…..
That was boring, then just go along the next morning, your lives should be the ones in mourning, can't be the ones the chose their way out rather than go on enduring.
I watch the news, and just think **** this place, **** this space, **** all that was built, in minutes it's been brought down to waste, if I hear one more ******* person say this is the greatest….. no the fuckit's not, what plant are they on, they claim free, none of us are free, just blind because no one wants to open their ****** eyes and see.
Screaming for help, does anyone hear
Demons, and  death coming next, who's gonna be blessed, failure and fighting everyone self obsessed.
Echoes, and lost minds, tormenting all day long, **** reality go back to sniffin lines, and see the history of dads that never were in sons over and over remind,
They breakin down woman who were once strong, how many generations was it gonna take for christ sake, now everybody wants to ask well how long, how long, how long, go **** yourselves all 435 actin like you didnt know **** was wrong.
What serenity anyway
Is it a feeling, state of mind, or just words people say, in the midst of neverendin dismay.
Deep rooted evil no time for  soul mates
Wondering why joy is always a day late
Suicide is livin watchin endurin, not dyin, be a miracle when leaders start tryin.
Happiness, the tears cried, fed with every lie.
Unable to distinguish what's real from what's fiction
Hope is an illusion, an optimist's prediction
What will it take to get right
The devil comes on lonely nights
Angels battle but they lose there stand
Reminicent of their holy land
Lost in ours head we hear their harmonious song
A tranquil state  now finding ourselves
Dealing with the hand which we were dealt
Good vs evil, what does it really mean
Are we ***** when we appear to be clean
Life is an illusion a constant mind trick to me, what is it that you see?
Who knows what fate will be
Heaven and hell are both fair game
Will we succumb to peace or fall down in shame
Surrounded by people yet all alone
Trapped within this solitary zone.
