Feeling despair and desolate
On the verge of surrender
Early hopes, wishes and prayers
All come to naught
Such a waste of time and faith
I ask neither for wealth nor fame
Only pray for peace and comfort

Supreme Being, God or Jehovah
Whatever name you go by
Begging you to save him from himself
He grows more insane each day

I no longer believe in miracles
Abandoned to my fate and his destiny
Tormented, we wait for the inevitable end.

I tell you before these words you speak
Never allow satan to make you this weak
As slowly he try's to lift away
What ever salvation
