I scream loudly in my head
All those hurtful things they said.
My silent screeching ceasing
Sanity steadily decreasing.
And I'm lost inside my core
Cause I won't take much more.
The crowd just stands around me:
Yelling, bashing, hounding.
But I don't say a word.
Because I know that I'm not heard.
My heart silently breaking,
So I cry to my Lord to take me.
Save me from my insanity
Break me of my profanity
Shake me of my envy
You and I know, Lord, that I'm guilty.
And the crowd still hangs around me:
Sinning, jeering, corrupting.
I'll tell them all I can, Lord
Cause we all need Your Word.
Not all of them will listen
To the trickle of your blood glisten—ing.
My soul was for the taking,
My heart just kinda breaking.
My spirit not revived
But now I know that you're alive, and
As the crowd just kneels around me:
Praying, crying, atoning
For I cannot save myself
Cause only you can save me from my hell.
