The Heat of the Moment
I’m powerless over my addiction
I’m relentless in my sweet infliction
The heat of the moment showers
Upon me truly hours after hours
I lie here on your stone
In distress, on my own
I lie here on your stone
I express myself all alone
Doubt and shame shelter me again
Show me a route in the heat of the moment...in the heat of the moment
Wondering where you have been...
Even in the cold of the moment, I feel God’s power so significant and elegant
I’m in distress...I believe in my sanity...
I express my depression in ways I can’t fathom honestly
I want success...my spirits are unmanageably hard to handle
I progress towards a happier lifestyle or I try to anyhow...I am a candle
In the moonlight...
In the moonlight...
An eagle that takes flight...
A hawk that hunts at night...
Frightened by Satan’s sight
Beyond the pain of our delight
The pain of our delight
Pain of our delight
Of our delight
Our delight
Delight
I feel the heat of the moment
And it rises above the dark clouds
I felt it since I was an infant,
Wrapped in blankets and shrouds
I need some guidance...
I need some radiance...
Hatred and love shelter me
But, will I ever be free?
Will I ever be free?
I lie here on your stone
In distress, on my own
I lie here on your stone
I express myself all alone
Doubt and shame shelter me again
Show me a route in the heat of the moment...in the heat of the moment
Wondering where you have been...
Even in the cold of the moment, I feel God’s power so significant and elegant
I’m in distress...I believe in my sanity...
I express my depression in ways I can’t fathom honestly
I want success...my spirits are unmanageably hard to handle
I progress towards a happier lifestyle or I try to anyhow...I am a candle
In the moonlight...
In the moonlight...
An eagle that takes flight...
A hawk that hunts at night...
Frightened by Satan’s sight
Beyond the pain of our delight
The pain of our delight
Pain of our delight
Of our delight
Our delight
Delight
Someone is greater than me
And that someone is God almighty
Growth and potential hit me extremely hard
While I write this down like a bewildered bard
For, I am powerless over my addiction
In the heat of the moment, despite my affliction
I adore happiness and higher direction
Even in the coldness of my heart’s lamentation
I lie here on your stone
In distress, on my own
I lie here on your stone
I express myself all alone
Doubt and shame shelter me again
Show me a route in the heat of the moment...in the heat of the moment
Wondering where you have been...
Even in the cold of the moment, I feel God’s power so significant and elegant
I’m in distress...I believe in my sanity...
I express my depression in ways I can’t fathom honestly
I want success...my spirits are unmanageably hard to handle
I progress towards a happier lifestyle or I try to anyhow...I am a candle
In the moonlight...
In the moonlight...
An eagle that takes flight...
A hawk that hunts at night...
Frightened by Satan’s sight
Beyond the pain of our delight
The pain of our delight
Pain of our delight
Of our delight
Our delight
Delight
I’ve been lost in a passionate paradise for so long
I’ve been found in Your eyes, in which I belong
It doesn’t cost a thing to belong with You, although strife’s abrewing
And do Your knowledgable Word of life and love, spiritually renewing
I lie here on your stone
In distress, on my own
I lie here on your stone
I express myself all alone
Doubt and shame shelter me again
Show me a route in the heat of the moment...in the heat of the moment
Wondering where you have been...
Even in the cold of the moment, I feel God’s power so significant and elegant
I’m in distress...I believe in my sanity...
I express my depression in ways I can’t fathom honestly
I want success...my spirits are unmanageably hard to handle
I progress towards a happier lifestyle or I try to anyhow...I am a candle
In the moonlight...
In the moonlight...
An eagle that takes flight...
A hawk that hunts at night...
Frightened by Satan’s sight
Beyond the pain of our delight
The pain of our delight
Pain of our delight
Of our delight
Our delight
Delight
I cherish recovery beyond the pain we dealt with
I wish you farewell as you dwell in your labrinth
Quit quilting your qualms of shame
Instead, accept the blame and come back to the way you came -
Holding on to a hopeful, joyous name
Dread eats me up like a worm in the bread of blasphemous game
I lie here on your stone
In distress, on my own
I lie here on your stone
I express myself all alone
Doubt and shame shelter me again
Show me a route in the heat of the moment...in the heat of the moment
Wondering where you have been...
Even in the cold of the moment, I feel God’s power so significant and elegant
I’m in distress...I believe in my sanity...
I express my depression in ways I can’t fathom honestly
I want success...my spirits are unmanageably hard to handle
I progress towards a happier lifestyle or I try to anyhow...I am a candle
In the moonlight...
In the moonlight...
An eagle that takes flight...
A hawk that hunts at night...
Frightened by Satan’s sight
Beyond the pain of our delight
The pain of our delight
Pain of our delight
Of our delight
Our delight
Delight
I’m powerless over my addiction
In the heat of the moment
The heat of the moment
Heat of the moment
Of the moment
The moment
Moment
The moment in which I reside in till this day
I hope and I pray I dismiss this feeling of dismay
I’m powerless over my addiction
It’s like receiving a notice of eviction
