My Surrender (Angel of Sadness)

Make me go to sleep 
Make me close my eyes 
As I take some time 
I surrender my habits 
Bless the lender of my worn fabrics 
Just once more a peaceful day, what a delight 
A soothing melody buries the night 
Make me go to sleep 
Make me close my eyes 
Does it feel like prison? 
Cause I cannot remove you from my thoughts 
If you will listen 
Your kindness burns my scars like crystals of salt 
As I lay ill sipping this pure life 
I only ask 
How much more can you endure my wife? 
Make me go to sleep 
Make me close my eyes 
If you can bring me to my knees 
I am yours 
If not 
I remain a lost soul at another’s door 
I live life ugly, give me death 
I laugh at strangers 
In one final gasp, I am Ur Saddened Angel 
Make me go to sleep 
Make me close my eyes
