I remember when I used to read the bible to myself
How I never feared the thought of going to hell.
I began to fall into the darkness, time would tell;
That I had already fallen into my own pit of fire.
What's happening to me? Oh God, why can't I breathe?
Adrenaline is pumping so rapidly through my veins;
I know theres something wrong with me, it's not hard to see
But I can't stop, no, I won't stop. I live day by day.
I trust in God's words, I've never given Him my doubts
But somehow I'm losing my breath, and I'm about to drown.
They're all telling me I'm falling within a world of sin;
But I can't stop, no, I won't stop to contain the beast within.
I have to urge to hold her in my arms, blocking out the world
I want to breathe in the smoke, I want to scream words unheard.
I want to live, I want to be free. I want to open up and breathe.
How can I do that? If Gods judgement isn't finding me worthy?
| What has become of me? Is this truely my fate? |
|If so, then God, please. Hear me pray...|
