Let Me Weep
Let me weep
Let me weep that I may be satisfied
That I may flush out this pain deep within
Deep within my heart
This pain that causes me to…ohhhh!
This pain!
Birthed from betrayal, loss and grief
Let me weep!
Let me weep and rid myself of this filth
I don’t wish to choke
I just want to purge myself of this yoke
It’s heavy and it’s…it’s heavy!
It’s been five days now
And it’s been weighing me down
I feel twenty pounds heavier
Let me weep!
Let me get rid of this yoke!
It’s heavy!
Let the dam break
Let the tears pour
Oh, let them pour!
My heart weeps
My eyes leak
Let me weep until I can weep no more
Let me weep!
