No One Else

It's Been So Long since I Tried
To Say a Little Prayer
But I'm in Desperate Need
Life Has Gotten So Unfair

I Took the Wrong Direction
And I Couldn't Seem to Stop
Things Went Way Too Fast
I Had No Time for Thought

Now I'm in a Real Mess
I'm Hurt Beyond Compare
I Have No One to Turn to
For Me...no One's There

I've Went So Far off Track
I've Took All I Can Stand
Now I Don't Want to Even "Be"
So I Need a Helping Hand

So I'll Ask God to Help Me
Because No One Else Will Do
He Knows My Pain and Sorrow
No One Else Has Walked in My Shoes
