I WANT TO BE FREE

Tue, 09/15/2015 - 18:55 -- anuelnd

For a while I forgot my Troubles
For a while I forgot my sorrows
I forgot My Debts , my failures
My mistakes, my fears
words I regret saying
Words I regret not saying
But then in the darkest hours of the night
it all comes crashing down
The burden becomes sooo heavy
No way to rid myself off it
No way to reduce my load
My soul is sick
My heart is sore
It bears all the pain
All the disappointments
I feel its gonna explode
I fear its gonna give up
All I want is for my burden to be lifted
All I want is to be free
Freedom; what is it?
To empty yourself before your creator?
To be free of your life?
Death?
The light at the end of the dark tunnel?
What is it?
Please tell me
I want to know
I want to be free
To be free of this burden
During the day I wear a smile
At night I cry myself to sleep
In public I wear a smile
In my private moments
The burden becomes too heavy to bear
Nobody sees it; the pain in my eyes
In my soul, the disappointment I feel
The failure I loath to become
I just want to be free
O lord Help me
I want to be free
