My eyes sting with unshed tears,
My heart aches with heartbreak through the years,
The barrier breaks and tears flow through,
I close my eyes and try to feel anew,
My arm burns like fire as a trail of blood flows from my wrist,
I hope that when I leave I'll be missed,
My blood turns ice with the thought of death,
Time stands still as I breath in my last breath,
I welcome the darkness as it creeps in,
And I ask God to forgive me for every last sin.
I smile as the world turns white,
And my pain vanishes into the night,
Siloheuttes form,
Completely unordinary, out of the norm,
My lord appears,
And I am relinquished of all my fears,
I think about every last want or bid,
And thank the lord for all he did.
As I stand here upon the ground,
I manage to take the slightest glance around,
Heaven is faded and I'm mortal once more,
I look around; I notice a door,
Jesus smiles, but leaves it open,
And for once I haven't trapped my hope in.
I walk back into my life,
Struggling against temptation and strife,
My family is happy and so am I,
I'm the only one who hasn't a cry.
People say you can't see God and live,
Explain it to me because I did.
