He
Don't try to reach me
Because I'm already dead
And the pain when it grips me
For things that I've done
Well I try to make you proud
But for crying out loud
Just give me a chance to
Hide away
Exhaustion takes over
Will this some day be over
Fearful tears are running down
The pain you've laid
Don't speak a sound
Don't take my heart
Away from me
And they think I fell down
Again
Daddy don't you love me
Then why do you hit me?
And Momma don't you love me
Then why do you hurt me
Well I try to make you proud
But for crying out loud
Just give me a chance to
Hide away
Exhaustion takes over
Will this some day be over
Fearful tears are running down
The pain you've laid
Don't speak a sound
Don't take my heart
Away from me
And they think I fell down
Again
A teardrop falls
From up in the heavens
Drowning the sorry
Of angels on high
And the needs of the helpless
The hopeless, The loveless
He wants you, He needs you,
He holds you, He loves you
He wants you, He needs you
