THE LIGHT

The Light 
 
The light in your eyes 
is starting to fad away 
just like night into day 
 
Your words cut deep within 
my heart like a bladed glass 
I try so hard to keep up a good
front that nothing is wrong 
 
But inside my head and my heart 
is remembering every nasty word 
You ever said 
 
You are constantly fight with me 
who's right and Who's wrong 
what a said way this is going 
 
As soon as I start to feel I can
grasp for air 
You start it up all over again 
and head to let this pain run 
 
Now I have too accept that you are 
Now long gone with someone new 
I had enough of the blues 
 
The taste of happiness has faded 
To another place were silence made Home  
This feeling that hunts at me 
I have to scream 
 
I feel the cuts that eat at my soul
I hold on to myself looking around 
our old cold beaten down room 
 
I started having a visions 
that captive within myself  
Feels as if someone pulling the rug
out from me 
 
Oh I cannot breath  
Please someone help me 
I fall off my feet onto my face 
My heart does feel a beat
I had been cut too deep 
 
I don't want to give up  
but this is too ruff for me 
to handle all on my own 
 
You left me with all the blames 
and so much pain that won't go away 
This is killing me slowly within 
 
Am holding it all in 
But how much can one person take
I try with all my might
to let it all end 
 
Why darkness try's so hard to make it's 
way end another time at my mind 
fall over me the cloud of gray 
 
When death has taken its course 
This is not who I'm supposed to be  
I always try to remain bright in the love 
Of my God 
 
But this time my heart holds glimmering
dark stones of You and I of all the wrongs  
Light of a lost souls
I must get my feeling back right
 
I call on you my God Jehovah
to let me run Free until I have finely find me  
I am asking You my God to help me please
 
Dust me off from all my sinful ways 
And let me see brighter days to run 
In the race .
