Alone in the dark feeling;
Around in the dark seething.
Hoping for some kind of light;
Wishing for anywhere that's bright.
Wondering when all will end;
When all other ends are spent.
Death seems better to me now;
That life I never know how.
Once was saved, but now am lost;
Paying with all the devil's cost.
Of choices made to turn my back;
And watching all my morals slack.
The demons' price is hard to pay;
Regret to haunt me everyday.
Wanting with all to turn back
The rusty hands of time on track.
Maybe soon all will fall;
Maybe soon to lose it all;
Maybe soon all will turn ;
Maybe soon all will burn.
All I can do is live today;
Paying all with which to pay.
In my mind I will try to say,
All will be paid in time someday.
No never will pain leave me;
Destined to never again be free.
Wondering how this came to be;
Wishing, hoping, again to see.
Living is better than dying I think;
Wanting to float rather than sink.
Into the chains forged for me;
Hoping to stand, and break free.
In the light is where hides the key;
Damned forever to the sea.
Of flames and anguish, unless I find
That source of light inside my mind.
Buried so deep under the pain,
And hate I have felt to go insane.
The only map to find the way
Was destroyed the moment I went astray.
So search I will til' times end,
To find that map once again.
To again pray unto the seeker;
Of the only and one gate keeper.
The only one that holds the fell,
And the keys of death and hell.
The Lion of Judah pray to hard;
And mend the heart torn to shard.
Return I will to that place of peace;
Back to that place of mind at ease;
Wandering no more in this darkness;
Clawing my way through virtual blindness.
The light of the king is the only true way.
The mighty fortress of hope and stay.
Turn I will before disaster;
Hope in the streets of alabaster.
As darkness closes all around me,
My enemies sensing the wound to bleed.
I must stand alone in shining light,
And pray to the Lion for His might.
