|
I feel a piece of my life escapes me |
|
With every rising of the sun |
|
Subtle thoughts assuring me that I'm not well |
|
Asyndesis, mind undone |
|
Was it me? |
|
Was I there? |
|
No way to tell memory cast farewell |
|
Will I live? |
|
Am I dead? |
|
Somebody said, "He's getting worse" |
|
1943 inside, outside it's yesterday |
|
God, please help me |
|
Lacramation down my face |
|
Voices, strangers from my past |
|
The people that I love |
|
Worried smiles across the room |
|
It's me they're thinking of |
|
You don't know how lame it is to wonder who you are |
|
Losing touch with everything, and everyone's so far |
|
Give to me the dreams my brain and mind will not recall |
|
Give to me the dignity of knowing me at all |
|
Here alone inside, please comfort me before I die |
|
And I can only be restored by your hand |
|
He who hears the Word and turns |
|
To do not what it says and learn |
|
Is like the man who gazed into the mirror |
|
For an honest view |
|
And saw himself and walked away |
|
Forgot the sight without delay |
|
This fate could be for me or you |
|
So seek the Lord in grace and truth |
