He Left Ninety-Nine

There is a madness here, stuck in my brain and these thoughts and feelings are driving me insane held hostage of my thoughts, within these bitter walls no escape, no where to run, dark, are these lonely halls My Father in Heaven, you have taken away your light it is among this madness I twist and turn and fight you can help me now, to take it all away but you have chosen to let me go astray where have you gone, my Shephard, when will you come for me? the way is lonely and frightning, among all the shadows I see Please come back, Lord, here my voice crying out to you I would never have left, if I had only knew Is that you I see, there surrounded by a shimmer of light? Is it you I see, having come after me, this long wretched night? Is it you out there calling a name that is mine? He's come, He's come to find me, He has left the other ninety-nine
