APPARITION

(CARLISLE)

SUFFERING FROM DEPRESSION

I WANDER INTO THE DARK

EMBRACING THE BLACKNESS

AND LONGING FOR DEATH

TRAPPED INSIDE AND LOSING MY MIND

I TRY TO ESCAPE THE STATE OF MY PATHETIC LIFE

AAARH

RISING FROM THE WASTELANDS

I COLDLY EMERGE

LOOKING FOR A SHIMMER OF LIGHT

AND A PURPOSE FOR BEING

I WILL SURVIVE

REFORM MY MIND - TURN FROM THE LIES

DISCOVER A RENEWED REASON - FOR LIVING

AAAARH

OH GOD I LONG FOR RELEASE FROM THIS DEPTH

THIS HOLE IN THE GROUND - WHERE I DWELL

UNLESS YOU RAISE MY WOUNDED SOUL

I WILL NOT SURIVIVE MY HELL

HELP MY WEARY FEET TO STAND

AND TAKE ME IN YOUR HAND

HERE I STAND - MY ARMS ARE RAISED

READY TO BELIEVE

TAKE AWAY MY PAIN AND GUILT

ALLEVIATE MY GRIEF

I WAS ONCE A WORKING MAN

RESTORE MY FAILING HEALTH

AND IF YOU ANSWER MY DESPERATE CRY

I WILL HUMBLY RECEIVE
