Take him away
June 15, 2011
Lord Clear my mind
Help me Sleep
take that boy
away from me
wash his touch
cleanse my mind
from his words
and dark lies
his voice echos
all around
and my heart is still
dragging on the ground
stabbed with hate
strangled with love
what happens now?
take my prayer up above
let it ring
and fly high like a dove
like a lost balloon
let in become untouchable
let it go beyond the stars
little boy please stay away
because you can only bring pain
i will no more
shed a tear
for you
little boy.
