Take Me Away
Running low on hope
my optimism seems to elope
How much longer before I drown
Not any stronger for a frown
The helping hands seem to shrink
Another gallon of betrayal to drink
Today I'd love to die
Today in peace I can lie
Nothing much to lose, nothing to foresee
Today I'm content with my life
Today I'm in peace with all of earth and those in it
Today I don't owe the world a piece of me
Today I feel like I lost this war
Today is goodbye but tomorrow I might rise
Tomorrow may be better or never ever
But today I'll wait, in patience and at ease
For one who knows patience, knows peace
The peace that I crave, deserve and need.
Today I rest, tomorrow I feast.
