      Late at night, down on my knees

I pray, hope, and continue to beg please

Take me away to some kind of release

Take me away from this life now that I’ve been disgraced

Destroy my evil and these demons I’ve faced

Amen, as a sound echoes throughout a church hall

So loud it resonates off of every wall

As if God himself could hear

Finally coming to rest in my ear

It seems as though I may be too late

The good lord has already decided my fate

Just to make sure I didn’t leave anything out

I return to my knees and begin to shout

Please oh please lord don’t you forget

That I too live with my own regret

Of all the good I could have done

I have to say that I have done none

Through all the love I could have spread

An equal amount of tears I have shed

Still I am here trying to fix everything

All of the wrongs I have done, and the happiness I couldn’t bring

I know you are too busy to always be around

And I am sorry for all those times I let you down

I’ve never really known what I should say

Probably because I’ve lost my faith along the way

I have lost sight in everything I once believed

Losing all of the love I once received

Please lord save me from this broken home

Please, oh please lord, don’t let me die alone

Amen
