Stand Here

by TheBarefootedCowgirl   Aug 7, 2008


VERSE 1:
I reach for the knife
But for some reason I can't pick it up
I shove my head under water
But for some reason I lift it back up
I stand on the edge
Ready to jump, but somehow I can't
I want to leave this world behind
But You say no, somehow hold me back

CHORUS:
I stand here screaming- Can You hear me?
I stand here bleeding- Can You feel me?
I stand here burning- Can You see me?
I stand here crying- Do You know me?
I stand here asking- What about me?
I stand here waiting- Won't You help me?

VERSE 2:
Why God? Tell me why
You see I just don't understand
The reason I'm here
And what it is that You have planned
Show me what to do
Please show me my reason to live
So wake me up
I want to love, and to give

VERSE 3:
No reason to live
I know that I'd rather be dead
I don't try to live
So I'll try dying instead
But that doesn't work
So now what will I do
Living life hurts
But You said You'll help me through

BRIDGE:
I need You to come
To come help me through
I can't do this alone
God I need You
Please won't You come
Please help me through
I can't do this alone
My God I need You

**ok so this is a song a wrote, but technically it's just a poem with music to it, right?? lol
