It

It’s not so much I want to die

I get so tired of living

I gave so much that’s not returned

I get so tired of giving

I will place my head upon your knee

While you stroke my hair

Please take away my doubts and fears

 I know how much you care

 You always want the best for me

I know that you mean well

Wish others could see into my heart

Or mind, where I’m in hell

 I just look on at you my dear

I know you suffer so

With all my will and all my might

I wish those demons would go

I get so tired all the time

As I lie in dead of night

Tormented by my crazy fears

And am I wrong or right?

You lie alone, of that I know

 Your heart is badly seared

All the trials, all the pains

  From many nightmares, feared

In all that’s true

You know me well

You always ease my pain

But sometimes I descend to hell

Too tired to rise again

 Take me in your loving arms

And rock me sound to sleep

I’ll trust in you to carry on

My love for you runs deep
