Forget Me
"Forget Me"
All alone on the birthday eve staring at the ceiling
Tried of feeling like who I am doesn't exist
I have tried to stay strong but inside remained weak
So tonight I stare into the stars above asking for His open arms
Life is suppose to be something of happiness and love
Giving my life to Christ in a way has not given me eternal healing
So the opposite of pain relief is the medicine to heal me of all sorrows
As I close my eyes will I awake again to suffer like years gone by?
Never ending thoughts of yesterdays when life's treasures escaped my grasp
Not knowing if I am to blame for the loss of feeling needed
Looking around these streets of barren brick I know I stay alone
Forgive me Jesus for not believing you can save me from this sin
Once again I take a drink from the bottle that sits beside me
Washing down the disgust of ever being born into this world of torture
Unlike the famous people in my life who successfully achieved such fame
I will close my eyes forever more so the world can still forget me
