My Distress
I find sometimes no matter how hard i try,
i can never find my way out ..
Even when my intentions are holy set
I fall right back down and out of my nest
Nothing do i find besides unsettling stress
Nor can i find someone for my heart to caress
Sometimes i think i do,...but then im tricked again
Im trapped time and time again in mess
Yet im not brave enough to end my own life just yet
Even if all i see and feel is turning to darkness
And my God why do i keep seeing number 22?
Is it psalm 22? Forsaken am i yet again?
Just tell me already so i can have a clear head
Why must it be a riddle all the time my God?
Im starting to feel dead
Im starting to hollow underneathe this youthful body
And my heart is heavy as lead
I wish i could only silence this never ending distress
My mind feels torn apart like bread
The crumbs keep trickling until nothing is left
Maybe some day il just wake up dead
I feel like nothing and worthless as my heart is starved
And this meaningless body is fed
Once again probably, you will ignore me in my time of distress
Maybe my faith too is dying...
but i guess like you said...
all things must end
