Sweet sanity, why did you desert me tonight
leaving behind dark days, void of light.
Madness is waiting just a few steps away,
I'm trying so very hard to keep it at bay.
Sweet sanity, where have you gone?
You left me searching from dusk to dawn
for a path illuminated so bright,
to banish those dark days, void of light
Sweet sanity, my every moment filled with doubt,
this can't be what life is all about.
Desperately trying to fill dark days, void of light with hope
just so that I can cope.
Sweet sanity, I beg you, please come back,
guide my life to get it back on track,
to stop thoughts I have come to dread.
God, please don't let me be dead!
