A Drunkards Prayer

 I walked through the valley of the shadow of death and feared only my own evil

Lord please come find me now I need you most, I tripped on a grain of truth and the world just slapped me

Now I'm laying here waiting for something to change

Anything

Staring at hell through cracks in the pavement, looking forward to the flames  because at least I'd feel them


Lord I feel light shining down on me but when the truth is so ugly the light doesn't help.

There's wisdom in mirrors that I regret seeing

I know who I am and I don't like me,
I drank to forget and now I don't remember who i used to be. I lost something important and I can't find it

Lord please come find me because I can't

Please come find me because I can't move, I had too much and my body disowned me

You must not know I'm here because then your piss wouldn't drown me

Lord please help me because I can't help myself

Lord forgive me, because I can't do the same
