I am lost and all alone,
I am far, far away from home.
I have no place to call my own.
I feel this shadow lingering over me,
Who could this shadow be?
If it were god wouldn't he come and rescue me?
I look around and the past stares me in the face,
I use to be so happy.
But now I'm in this cold, dark place.
I have feelings that I can not share,
I have thoughts that I can not bare.
I am at loss of words to say,
I dread seeing the next day.
Maybe I am odd for feeling this way,
But I do, so what should I say...On to the next day.
I miss what I used to be,
Why can't they just understand me?
Maybe my life wasn't the best, but it was mine.
Now I'm living this nightmare that is someone else's.
I wish I could go back in time.
I want to feel happy again,
I want to do away with all the pain that I'm in.
I am drowning in the sea of misery,
I am gasping for air to breathe,
My life passes before me.
Is that God that I see?
Now I'm down on one knee,
Begging the Lord before me.
I am lost and all alone,
I am far, far away from home.
I have no place to call my own
I feel this shadow lingering over me,
Who could this shadow be?
Please God please rescue me.
