slip n' slide


Tell me why I'm here

can't feel anything new

I'm lost and lonely 

feeling broken and bruised

so many good things have happened with me

but even now why can't I see?

God I'm begging I need to understand

Show me a pathway tell me your plan

I can't do it alone anymore I can't hide

but this has happened before, it feels like a slip n' slide

I can't keep my balance, keep losing my grip

why do you let me fall God, why do I slip?
