Strength to carry me for a moment
Love to carry me away
Hope that's everlasting
Peace that is here to stay
Joy that wants to pass through
Depth beyond the soul
Despair that eventually finds your heart
Grudges that burrow in
Jealousy that becomes your eyesight out
Hate becomes the meaningful rest
Satan grabs hold, he just the best
Evil becomes you
Selfishness becomes your slogan
Offered as what your life is all about
Everything is pointed in your direction
But you have trouble with your discreations
Something does not seem quite right
It all just seems to quiet
Your heart is empty
God is nowhere to be found
How long has he been missing
Since Satan kicked him out
When you've choose you as your passion
Believing your ownself as a god
God doesn't barge back in
He knocks and waits for you to open the door
But He only waits so long
