Deep Blue

im stuck please set me free
this mortal coil is all but spun free
i wade in ten feet of misery
im suspicious of all and im leary
so much is on my shoulders i can barely stand
to walk the same path daily is brave of me
to walk it alone is dumb of me
i need a guiding light to illuminate my ways
i need to bleed away all my endeavors
i need starve off my old sins and sin better
should i strive for perfection or forgiveness
how deep is this plight of mine
how long til this flight lands
in the deep blue in my soul
