Crying Out
Trapped in this dark place
High walls give no escape
Gasping for air
I'm dying to catch my breath
Fighting my way through this labyrinth
And run to the arms of someone who cares
My eyes blurry
My legs numb
My body's weak
Losing my voice
Can’t hardly speak
Getting breathless
Struggling to stay alive
Crying out! For help
So someone could hear me
I think It's too late
My life's slipping away slowly
Death is calling
Crying out
Father please save me
Rescue me
Taking my last breath
Now all I see is darkness
Still crying out
From beyond the grave
Surrounded by dead people
Anxious to come back to life
For I can't take this heat
It's constantly burning
Over and over again
It seems like there's no end.
