Wicked Prayer

Let me sleep

keep me close

Setting up hope

putting it up in cases

Let me live

See me die

keep me close

never lie

show me faith

give me reason

set me free

take me home

show your eyes

i see your soul

darkness falls

your hand is cold

wipe my tears

hold my face

see my eyes

take a taste

sweet blood

thick as milk

keep those lips

far away

take this hand

take my pain

Go tell your people

I am here. 

tell them 

she stays

let them know

of my provactive ways.

Show me your heart

let me see how it bleeds

show me your scars

show me how you feed

this i pray you seek in me

let me sleep

let me be..
