Maybe It's Everything

Maybe it's my bipolar, 
Flaring up once again…
Maybe it’s God's Will
That it’s happening…
He will surely find me a cure
To this sadness and madness within

Maybe God's a phone call away 
Maybe He loves me still 
Eventually, I will endure today 
He’ll catch me as I fall away 

Acknowledge my pain, I pray
Give me His healing rain today
I’ve been caught up in the storm of utter dismay
Where do I stand, Lord?
You are my utmost Accord
This world is full of joy and grief
Shower upon me your healing relief

How can I heal those in need?
How come the world is full of greed?
We all need love and comfort
How come I feel guilty and hurt?
We all need serenity…why can’t we all be free?
How come the woeful world is in captivity?
Somehow, we need answers please
To settle our minds at ease

Maybe it’s my depression
Maybe even my anxiety,
Getting in the way of sunlight today

Maybe He forgives me for the wrongs and sins
I have done thoughtlessly and foolishly
He’ll catch me as I fall away
Mend my emotions, I pray
Maybe it’s my schizophrenia
Maybe I’m a worthless flaw and all
Maybe life’s a mere delusion
In the busted mirror's reflection
Maybe, just maybe I’m falling apart because I’m feeling blue…
It’s nothing new cuz you’ll never know what I’ve been through

Maybe it’s my insomnia 
I know I shouldn’t label myself 
With these conditions and symptoms…
I should go and love myself for a change…
Maybe Satan will be put away for a thousand years
God promises that He will protect me from my fears
Maybe I’m falling into place cuz I’m telling the truth 
My disorders isn’t my fault…it isn’t my fault…
Soon, all of the chaos in mind will come to a halt

Maybe…
It’s everything that’s wrong with me…I wonder oh so anxiously
Maybe…
It’s everything that’s meant to be…I ponder about it vigorously
Maybe…
It’s everything that’ll set us free in liberation possibly...fortunately..
Maybe…
It's everything that I’m struggling with that will make everyone relate to me
