Lying here in the dark tonight
Believing it when I say there's no light
There is some type of pit in my gut
It hurts so much, but it isn't real
It feels dark, hollow and empty
All of my sadness and agony
Form a pit in my gut
I clench it tight
Hoping for the pain to go away
Only it doesn't go away
I lay there and cry
Curled up and dying inside
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
Who will save me
I don't know
I only survive the night
When I hear the angels sing
Sing their soft lullaby
I slowly drift away
To a gentle sleep
But the pit still remains
All of the pain still lingers
The angels song just saves me
But for how long?
