Searching

 

Don't take my lips, please take my hand

I fear this is the end

Lie beside me and comfort me

I just need a friend

I see this world as a desolate place

A wasteland God forgot

Death stands before me smiling

He knows my every thought

He promises to take me to another world

Better than the one I'm in

He tells me I'll be happy there

Although he knows I've sinned

I've searched for so long within and without

For a reason to resist him

I find it so hard because I don't feel alive

For so long I've been merely existing

I've looked all over to try and find God

But I have seen no sign

Death tells me he's abandoned me

And left me far behind

I don't want to believe him

But do I have a choice?

I pray to him every night

But does he hear my voice?

Should I believe the golden promises

Of this specter named death?

I've tried to survive in this world I'm in

What choice do I have left?

I'm here to share my thoughts not ask

What I should do

I care for you too much for that

I wouldn't burden you

For all I know this vision is God

Trying to lead the way

He just may want me to accept his hand

God wouldn't send me astray

They say that life's a perfect gift

God has blessed us with

They say too that Heaven's a dream come true

One must be a myth.
