I cry a tear of hope but it is lost in helplessness The darkness eats away at the very embers of my soul For the deepest love I had has dissolved before my eyes My sorrow is bleak, I beg for deliverance Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer All emotion is consumed by an inner silence All grief is unassuaged by disconsulate tears I want for nothing, I live for nothing I am waiting to die but I am afraid of dying Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer Crestfallen emotion Wallowing in guilt and drowning for evermore Falling deeper into fear My inner self is now a sleeper of stone Help me.
