Acoustics of my heart!!

Collapse

Collapse

Every breath, a weight on chest

Every thought , an unwelcome guest

Lashes of eyes never felt so heavy

A numb flesh, A boneless body

Seems like blood got stuck in veins

Senses out of order, helpless brain.

My knees are getting weak, feet starting to fail

Dear lord help me, My soul is drenching in pain

And when he sees me about to collapse

He comes under wraps, ready to attack

Pouncing on neck, breaking the back

Blows after blows, wound after wound

Determined to take me down

Dragging me to his battleground

Soaring and roaring in his piercing sound

Dear lord help me, My soul is drenching in pain

Dear lord help me, My soul is drenching in pain

The one with wings white did warned me of such times

Woe to me, how could I not read the signs?

The little innocent prayers I used to recite

So, why are you not here, right by my side

I know the deeds  I did, hurt you a lot

But please don't leave me, you are the only one I got.

My knees are getting weak, feet starting to fail

Dear lord, help me, My soul is drenching in pain

And when he sees me about to collapse

He comes under wraps, ready to attack

Pouncing on neck, breaking the back

Blows after blows, wound after wound

Determined to take me down

Dragging me to his battleground

Soaring and roaring in his piercing sound

Dear lord help me, My soul is drenching in pain

Dear lord help me, My soul is drenching in pain

And just when I was about to, give up the fight

I saw dawn breaking, the end of night

And just when I was about to close my eyes

I saw dark fading, the sun arise

My knees were getting weak, feet started to fail

My soul was drenching in pain

Dear lord, helped me, saved me from the traps

Just before I was about to collapse
