Death, sorrow

Kelley Davies 1983 (Dallas)



This world

Gets on my last nerve

People

Make me wish for death

They judge

They hate me

I wish the pain was over

I stare to heaven

But remain lost

In hell on this planet

If Jesus were alive, could I be fixed?

I want the end to my existence so badly

I've screwed things up too much

For the redemption of my soul

I simply wish to be lost in divine love

For the rest of eternity

And to forget the pain this world has laid upon me

I want my end. I want the end. Save me. Please

Sometimes I wish I knew what was going on. But then I have to let go and let things be as they are. more…
