Out of This World

Shadows falling, cold and deep

Praying for a place to sleep

Whispered questions in the dark

Why am I here, what's my mark?

Every scar, every bruise I bear

Feels like I’m fighting an endless despair

God, can you hear me, I plead and I cry

Why did you let me live, tell me why?

I’m too weak to end this pain

Longing for release, but I can’t sustain

Caught in this cycle, broken and torn

Yearning for freedom, tired and worn

Take me out, I don’t belong here

My restless soul, drowning in fear

Can’t wrap my hands, can’t squeeze the pain

Just want relief from this endless stain

God, tell me why, why am I here?

When all I feel is hurt and fear

Take me out, I’m begging you

Save me from this life I can’t undo

Suffered so much, broken and scarred

Living in a world that’s gone too hard

I’m just a teen, lost in the storm

Seeking your answer, unsure and forlorn

I’m too weak to end this pain

Longing for release, but I can’t sustain

Caught in this cycle, broken and torn

Yearning for freedom, tired and worn

Take me out, I don’t belong here

My restless soul, drowning in fear

Can’t wrap my hands, can’t squeeze the pain

Just want relief from this endless stain

God, tell me why, why am I here?

When all I feel is hurt and fear

Take me out, I’m begging you

Save me from this life I can’t undo

In the silence, I surrender

Hoping for a better ender

But I’m chained to my despair

Is there anyone who cares?

So I pray one last time, in pain

Hoping you’ll ease my suffering

Until then, I’ll bear my grief

Longing for sweet sweet relief
