THIS SORROW

I looked at him and pulled away to face the pain.
As I closed my eyes, I began to slowly drift away.
I cried out in my fears as it rained,
thinking to myself, I will never find my way.
my heart is broken, and my spirit is lost.

My soul is torn wondering will this ever end?
I'm torn because of you.
My heart will always weep while I seep.
All because of you Dark Angel,
You're always keeping me so confused.

I cried so loud saying in a blood-curling cry,
"Deliver me from all this sorrow that is keeping me
locked away in this nightmare,
I can't go on living like this."
Please, somebody, help me get out of this mess,
I can't go back to the way it was.

I can't go and see what my future is written
because it is forbidden.
I feel so ashamed for letting this darkness in
I fear I will never find my way out.
who will save my soul, who will catch me as I fall?
I will always wonder how I got this away.

Half of my life without the sight,
left me broken in a life of fear.
I get down on my knees asking God to hear,
Please open my eyes, and shine your light
into my life and help me get out of here.
