Another Day
Another day of misery as I lie awake in bed
Many things coming and going, crazy thoughts in my head
Body weighed down with grief, I couldn’t even move
Someone’s knocking at my door, but I’m just not in the mood
I know it’s the devil he wants me to come and play
I turn my back away from the door, and then I begin to pray
Talking to God I wonder if he hears me, will he lend me his ear?
Will he finally do something for me, something I’ve been asking for, for years?
Will he take the key and unlock the chain that holds down my heart?
Will he find the pieces that have been broken and shattered and mend back my life that’s
been torn apart?
Will he love me like I know he loves the angels above?
Lord knows the only thing I want in the world is to simply be loved
