Jaded Jade in the Jungle

Saw you cry cry cry and pout No doubt...I don't care anymore What are you crying about? Can't you see I'm jaded to the core? I hear people preaching about marriage When they're married themselves! No humility! Just overrighteous and like a miscarriage Swallow your damn pride, sinful elves Saw you weep, weep, weep bitterly I feel God's windstorm repeatedly Freedom in the Kingdom of Peace Is what I long for, so please...please...please... Don't shed me your sorrows...sweet sorrows Don't embed me with your yesterdays When i should look forward to many tomorrows Don't use me with your grief's rain today and one of your callous ways Don't beg for mercy these wicked days Entangled in this jungle of lies Give me true righteousness and no more solemn goodbyes Kingdom come...some say, but I say live it now Somehow... I'll take this godly vow and take a bow The breeze of turbulence Leads me to repentance I need His delightful deliverance Due to some circumstance... It's just a glance, my minor problems and such Elegance and radiance is painted in the skies of Your touch Emotions and commotions collide Take a ride into my shoes for once in this town Notions and oceans break the pride Coldness and bitterness weighs me down Hold on a little longer now I'm bemused because I've been abused and accused of stuff I didn't do Somehow, I wipe away the sweat from my brow Shoo away the shame and confusion...under a terrible spell, so damn true I'm having anxiety because of your past complaints and worries I'm having depression due to your damaging, distorted miseries Hand me a tourniquet of tranquility I'm battling this bewilderment frankly Patience and graciousness comes from He Why won't we just accept it and just leave me be? Held on to this troublesome feeling inside I'm a mess of distress in excess... Press forward...weary, dreary soul of mine I guess I'm a jaded jade in this journey of a jungle life I'm a feeling without feeling...a numbness, coming undone I'm a wordless prayer, a writer's block in the poet's mindset of bliss and error Forever forgive me...give me fervor Faith lead me further...into...the blurriness of a lifetime Happiness in me -- I crave Save me, make me brave Hope you won't doubt away all of me If you do, you'll see no end of the empty Inside me...inside me... can't you see? No... you're a married couple of glee supposedly...living perfect lives of so-called ecstasy Didn't I tell you I was a jaded jade in your withering, tremoring hand? Don't you know that I love you so? I can't want this to go out of hand...understand? Won't you let go and embrace glee over woe? You, you, you have a hold on me Let me embolden you to set your wild-and-wise spirits free Don't condemn me... That's my only plea You are unforgotten in my memory Remember that, don't kid yourself, okay? Say what you want to say, can't shade my nature so gay I want you free and happy, unlike me Remember that, be rid of selfish, horrid thoughts and heartless actions that leads us all astray I pray you don't leave me a jade, Jaded in the sweltering, yet shameless and sheltering shade I'm on this journey towards the Jungle of Joy What about you, you bad, sad and mad man that acts like an uncanny and foolish boy?
