as i chase euphoria, the sadness slips in
as i chase ecstasy, the sadness settles in
as i feel temporary bliss, the sadness grows
it then consumes me
it's overwhelming, i throw hands
it's overwhelming, i push it away
it wraps around my body
it embraces me completely
i suffocate
i suffer
it's hard
it's lonely
but my fear is being alone
when sadness no longer consumes me
when sadness no longer embraces me
because sadness stayed when no one did
but i finally see light
so Lord please
hold my hand
guide me
