As I lay here this time
Wondering about this life of mine.
I just can't seem to find the words to say.
I just can't find the strength today.
I pray the Lord my God can see
how close I am to losing me.
Emptiness consumes my mind
Thoughts that mean nothing all the time.
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I survive, before I break,
please...show me the way.
It all goes away from here.
I can't even just disappear.
Now I know how the Lord feels,
but I won't let it end me.
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I survive, before I break,
please...give me the way.
