Can You Hear Me

My howl searches the moon Yet the essence of it forbids me Am I alone? Deserted on earth? Has the gravel consumed me? I'm craving the stench of true night How much further can i go? I'm gripped tight five tons deep There is nowhere lower i know I'm falling to the core Clenching onto untold death The cold fortells a fear For i no longer keep my breath I'm reaching from within Can you hear me? Dear Lord, restore my life I need you to be near me So lost, so alone, So deserted, but don't forget me My throat dry from crying and i know that you can't hear me! I've replenished what i had and cried myself to sleep I forget how life remembers Having only my soul to keep My Jesus, Saviour, let me rest As my face changes to a shade of blue I've accepted fate, my voice is silent To unexist is a greater deal to do.
