Once Empty

All alone, seems it's been this way for so long, forever
 Left behind, why is there no one by my side?
 Dying for life, can someone redeem my tortured soul?
 I'd like to end this lifeless battle
 I sit in the doorway all alone
 Wondering why I've failed you for so long
 I wish I were dead
 They claim to be His, but there's death on their lips
 I want no part in this
 I'm so alone as I clench the steel in my hands
 I'm here for you when all else has faded
 My love formed your existence in the womb
 You're My child, I will never forsake you
 You've finally seen how empty you are without Me
 Return to me
 Revive new life
 I'm Your salvation
 I receive new life
 Look beyond what my eyes see
 I choose to open my heart to trust
 Come and release me
 My salvation lies on You
