Put Me To Sleep

I was led me to my cell 

A place where I will spend the rest of my days 

Surrounded by four walls of shame

I submitted myself to their strength 

Though I knew this wasn't my place 

This is not the end that I yearn to obtain 

So I prayed ...

 

Put me to sleep 

Anesthetize my pain 

Destain my impurity with your rain 

I have been mistaken

Drain life from my veins

I have been mistaken

Quicken my evanescence

 

The rust on the gates 

The raven's voice 

The ache caused by the burning flames beneath my skin 

The light that has abandoned my eyes 

They all gather in my mind 

In the weakest moment of my life 

And all I do is running away 

A desperate try to leave my life 

And all the sorrow held inside  

So maybe pain will go away 

So maybe I can cross over to a better place
