Heaven Help Me

I feel like giving in to it
The past is closing in on me
Physically as age comes on
Sometimes the pain is unbearable
What I want can’t help
What I need is in reach
Don’t want to know it again
Heaven help me if I give in
The devil has a hold of me
I don’t know how much longer
I can fight him off
My will is fading fast
Dear lord, don’t let me go
I can’t last much longer
The feelings are strong
Heaven help if I give in
