My Last Hope
I have reached the end
Beyond the help of a friend
What words will make this right
I call on the lord this cold night
Even he can’t decrease the pain
Common sense is what I try to gain
My heart begs for an ounce of hope
This life is placed under a microscope
Dreams of a brighter tomorrow
Have been clouded by sorrow
Friends don’t come by anymore
They say that I’m not like before
Like a moth I fall victim to the flame
For all this pain who do I blame?
Lord why have you forgotten me
An explanation there must be
I try not to loose my composure
Like a widow I look for some closure
Please don’t let me fall into this hell
I know you know this story quite well
The type that you try to understand
Alone the depressed can never stand
Won’t you be a friend of some sort?
Let your loving arms be my fort
Your smile can be guiding star
As I heal my every single scar
Stay around for my sake
In my recovery please partake
Be my friend this very day
Promise me you won’t go away
Only you can make my sun shine
Thank you for being so very divine
