I Want To Come Home

Take me home
I want to sleep
shut my eyes and
let me dream.
Leave me in peace 
for I'll be no more.
I'll enjoy this eternal slumber 
as the years pass and go.

Oh lord make me an angel,
a guardian of light.
Let me destroy the demons of night.
Carry my soul to the mansion above.
Introduce me to those 
whom I once lost and loved.

This world is a burden where wickedness
lies.
I want to come home father so please 
let me die.
