Believe

by Ruthie   Jan 22, 2006


Watching all my friends
slowly fade away
having a new hook up
almost every day

Some nights I can't sleep
I know where they are
they're out partying
going way too far

I never know what to expect
each day at school
will they be there
or lying in a vomit pool

When I see their body's
I see what others don't
I try to talk with them
but they just won't

They say I couldn't understand
I'm too wrapped up in God
It's my own fault they say
cause I'm the one who's odd

They don't see my sleepless nights
or the tears I shed
They just think I'm at home
safely tucked up in bed

But here I am on my knees
talking this through with you
asking your wisdom and advice
on exactly what to do

Cause there's just no way
I can go on like this
pretending that I don't see
their blind and deadly bliss

Lord god you are omnipotent
the only one
that knows exactly
what they've done

Keep them safe God
Keep them well
Pick them up like you did for me
on those day's I fell

I cry out for their souls
incline your ear to me
Fight for me Lord
Make the Demons flee

Sometimes I feel
like I'm alone in this fight
But even in the darkness
You're always my light

When all is lost
and there's nothing left to receive
I will stand strong
and just believe
