| Saved From Life |
| Save me from the thing that is called life For I cannot stand it anymore The pain overwhelms the good The dark takes over the light Save me from the thing that is called life For all I can see is death The grim reapers outnumber the angels And evil consumes everything that I love Save me from the thing that is called life For it is nothing but a nightmare The heavens fall into hell And burn a charcoal black Save me, oh please save me For the pain is far too great Death defeats life's purpose Which it seems-there never was Save me from the thing that is called life Precious to some, nothing to others The blood runs through my veins And I cannot stand the feeling And yet, oh and yet I feel I must go on Why, I do not know Overwhelmed I walk A lake, so perfect stands And I realize that Had I not lived I would not have seen The beauties life offers To balance out the ugly And I feel no longer The need to be Saved from life. -Faith Andrews |
