the Void of Loneliness
Emptiness on a Midsummer Night
I feel my life is slowly stalling,
And now my burdened spirit's falling.
Weighed down and crushed, my soul is crawling,
And now I hear emptiness calling.
I'm fading and it feels pretend,
The pain stings, will it ever end?
I scream; then pray to Jesus, do the cycle once again,
My dreams all fall to pieces, it's like I die again.
Falling behind, I get intense,
Now they can feel I'm desperate.
I start to see it fall apart,
The strain of life betrays my heart.
I'm fading and it feels pretend,
The pain stings, will it ever end?
I scream; then pray to Jesus, do the cycle once again,
My dreams all fall to pieces, it's like I die again.
And now it's all elusive, is it all out of reach?
Tomorrow will delusion let me fall in defeat?
I'm fading and it feels pretend,
The pain stings, will it ever end?
I scream; then pray to Jesus, do the cycle once again,
My dreams all fall to pieces, it's like I die again.
