empty

i need you
my heart is broken
i feel like someone stole my soul
i feel hollow inside
a mere shell
of what i used to be
i am alone in my thinking
in my being
Lord, i need you more than ever
hold me as i shake and shiver
and brake before You
listen to each tear that falls
each sob
feel each quiver

so much negativity
all around me
i hate it
it reaches into my pores
and pulls out the worst in me

i can never do anything right
how can anyone love someone like me
i screw everything up
i can't do anything right

i disgust myself
how do i get free
i feel bound
tied down
held back
i can barely move
i need You
I need You to free me
from this pain
from my sin

i am nothing
i am wretched
i am evil
i am broken before You
Praising Your name
I love You
I do not deserve You
but i do need You

I try to do what is right
but i feel hands pulling me down
holding me on the ground
not letting me up
i can't fight them any more
i can't fight alone

Lord I praise You
for I know You are King
i know You have saved me
I know You love me
this undeserving mass
i know you will help me
Lord, please i beg You
Please

Lord, I need You more than ever
I am broken before You tonight
the pieces that are left of me
are scattered on the floor
this wretched soul is only one
a Father can love
no one else
