Send Me An Angel

My heart is racing I know that I am going insane

God please send me an angel to decompose my pain

Send me someone who can wipe these tears that I cry

Someone who shows me life when I really want to die

This life is worth living but not with a tormented heart

When peace, joy and happiness are a million miles apart

I'm trapped in total diregard for this thing they call life

With a dark, cunning soul full of grief and strife

NO, I am not ungreatful but the madness never stops

I'm terrified of the day that my sanity drops

I am angry and confused, but I am still alive so I am greatful

Lord I need you, please send me an Angel.
