Desert Child

My spirits sunk so low waiting for you
 Where have you Gone?
 I'd do everything I can if it means I can earn your love
 But I'm tired of striving to earn it
 I barely have the strength to love myself
 As I'm staring at the clouds
 You're always there for me
 And my hands are reaching out for grace
 Losing myself in your love is leading me to where I need to be
 Lies in my heart
 Lies in my head
 Losing the truth
 Losing your love
 Falling asleep
 Falling away
 Can I be saved?
 Can I be free?
 Will this hurting heart remain a desert
 Devoid of life
 Orphaned and alone?
 Once Adorned in beauty
 Now riddled in decay
 I want to believe my worth
 (My overcomer I love you so)
 Despite my doubts and these desolate hopes
 (Abide in me, I'll be your strength)
 I suffocate in mellifluous ache
 (Look towards the light, I'll guide your feet)
 Am I destined to carry this burden
 (You're not alone, I've set you free)
 That I've long outgrown?
 As I'm staring at the clouds
 You're always there for me
 And my hands are reaching out for grace
 Losing myself in your love is leading me to where I need to be
 I've been with you all along
 With the pain you have carried
 You will never be orphaned
 My beloved
