Trying to breath
But the air forced from my lungs
How hopeless this life is.
The devil is pushing things at me
How much longer will I live?
This hopelessness inside me
Is tearing me apart
Inside I’m slowly dieing
As this feeling gnaws at my heart.
A hopeless spirit I can’t shake off
And I don’t know how to deal
For all the things that I’ve tried
Won’t help my wounds to heal.
Bringing me all the closer
To the day I meet my death
Causing me to feel this pain
And wallow in hopelessness.
This demon has a hold on me
And is digging his nails in
I fear his grip is eternal
And I’m losing my will to live.
He’s satisfied with his work
This hopeless demon of mine
He thinks he’s finally done me in
As he laughs and watches me cry.
But little does this demon know
Someone’s told me about God
And now my life has turned around
And I run instead of trod.
God has finally set me free
From this hopeless state I’m in
Forever great full I will be
As I put my hope in him.
That hopeless demon, now I see
Was hopeless all along
I only had to turn around
And sing a different song.
I sing my praise to God
In every moment of my life
But I can’t seem to sing enough
Or as loud as I would like.
And yet I know he hears me
Even the whispers under my breath
He lifts me up and heals me
Shielding me from hopelessness.
To my God I now belong
From now to the end of time
I willingly give my life to him
And how hopeful I am inside.
