I wanna scream and shout out
But the words, they just don't come out
So much to shed, so much to share
But the questions and the pain, I just cannot bear.
I wanna rip it out, throw it up, up and away
But buried in my heart, they seem doomed to stay
I am not afraid of monsters in the dark,
But what terrifies me is this emptiness in my heart.
All I wanna do is forgive and forget
Instead in your house, my cheeks they end up all wet
I don't know if I made the right choices
If I did, then why all these voices?
So many secrets, so many lies
Only a few see through these green eyes
I did what I had to do
So why won't you help me through?
I look up and call out your name for help
But I just end up looking down, taking a big gulp.
Eat it up; it's your entire fault
Then box it up and hide it in your vault.
It's so secure, it's held so tight
But truly, all I wanna do is let go with all my might
I am tired; I wanna give up this fight
Enough is enough, just one peaceful night.
Why is that so much to ask?
To fulfil your will, I am masked
About those angels wings;
Where are they now?
I wanna get through this, just show me how.
My heart bleeds at this reflection
Phone calls not from friends, but for debt collection.
You say hold on; just trust me
For how long, cos I am drowning
I need to be at my peak and be strong
For my babies, in my current world, they don't belong
All the tears and all the deception
Begs the question, have you over-estimated my strength?
Cos I am all stretched out, above average length.
I refuse to accept that this is it
In my heart of hearts, I don't believe it.
So lift me up and take me to that place
Of everlasting light, that this evil may erase.
Take my heart I give it to you,
Cos even though it's out of rhythm,
It belongs to you
Raise me up, lift me high
So I can soar like an eagle through the sky
Help me now, I am desperate and know you will
For only you, this emptiness can fill
Make me bright and shiny, so I can stop this disappointing
All I need is your Holy Anointing
Believe me to be true
And my heart, you will see healed and a new.
But the words, they just don't come out
