In an act of desperation, he put a gun to his head
In his mind confusion, nothing but delusion
Thinking he was better off dead
No one to be his savior from the vices he made
Voices calling to him, left his life in ruins
Drugs have led his mind astray
God, don't you hear me, God don't you care
Cuz if you did my friend, you wouldn't leave me hanging on this way
Somebody turn on the lights, somebody get me some air
I'm in the middle of a nasty situation that is leading me on nowhere
I gotta hear you tonight, I gotta know that you care
You got me down on my knees and I'm praying and I gotta know your really there
The second hand is ticking, time moves ahead
Feel the shadows breathing, whispering and seething
Dealing inside my head, a candle flame before me
Flickers in dance as I sit here praying hoping that I'm swaying the Gods of second chance
All cry to heaven, all cry for truth and while we wait for lights and thunder, the devil is on the loose
Somebody turn on the lights.....
