I Cried Into the Night

I cried into the night death that I might die my life was a ransom of pain the work in my life felt in vain Yet slowly eye's raised to the light I found my heart liked to pray death what is death perhaps just a door To a living much better than life Gods love bringing smiles to your day another life lost heart break and tears perhaps they do find loving dad fighting myself grim ripe and bad my mind a cauldron of pain the war of my mind was so bad an equal to each fight I had battle the rage felt within free yourself from your cage learn to live and love life learn to be true to yourself What is death to God his time to embrace us with life our lives to his heart his time to share love To us it's the end of this life to him it is the beginning of care perhaps we roam as angels through a world of starlight bright Know I not for I am not God hate him not for he is not death love the builder of worlds love death as the doorway to life Do not rush towards heavens gate's we have such a short time to wait take the time to find love's embrace learn to love your birth Grace our lives with smiles of peace as friends lets embrace live's we live In loving god know then this peace you know not the gifts that he give's The ones lost to us only just wait Wait for our loving embrace yes it is true there's anger in you How could he take what he gave Know I not for I am not God I do not then know why we suffer so I just know that life has it's end again we will meet then as friends If we live in this pain embracing the drain the task of living is dread we have choice we then can move on We can sing the living song return to embracing our live's enjoy the evening sky's take the time to watch the birds To taste a fine wine enjoy a fine meal to hug then a lover enjoy a kids squeal Eat a meal to quickly and the taste is lost in the rush take the time then to walk enjoy a sweet talk perhaps you'll find the time care to share just slightly more fun employers push make you rush sometimes it's better to walk To bring then your joy back to life to bring back your humour and love to bring back the smiles to this life to take back the time for fun
