Depths of Your Despair

All the angels have left thou And thy soul is a crippled runner -- The winds blows you off course And alll thy enemies rest only at the strongest force. The children have nothing left but empty eyes And you have nothing to offer but lonesome lies. And the tears fall down your sullen cheeks And happiness has no room to even take a peek. Alone in this world, alone as always And your despair is a never ending hallway. You would kill for a moment of tranquility But no one gives you any credibility. Much too late to start anew You're a soldier trying to pull through. You are beyond empty, like a forgotten ghost You are without anyone to be your host. You wonder if anyone has the time of day to spare To hear your cry out, to say a little prayer. You ask God why this life is so unfair As you scream out the depths of your despair.
