I want to scream the thoughts from my head,
So maybe I can get peace to sleep in my bed.
They rattle against my insides all night,
Begging for escape but making my lungs feel tight.

I try to let them out but each time I do
It gets brushed aside and lost too.
If what I say really has no worth
Then why am I even on this earth.

I feel I can't take this much longer
Than God comes and puts his hand on my shoulder.
He says "I'll always be here to talk."
So I lean into Him and continue our walk.
My journey with Him has been so true
Because He's a friend that listens through and through.
