Lord, please help me,
i lost my direction.
i am drifting into places
that are dangerous to my mind.
i can’t seem to find
a rhyme or a reason,
the way people treat each other
in a world that’s gone mad.
what is it you believe in,
what do you stand-up for?
are you chasing shadows,
are you following the herd?
do you spend your time hiding
inside shades of grey?
can’t you see it my friend…
there is no in-between!
the night finds me drowning
in endless temptations,
that tear at my conscience
till i am ready to scream.
i find myself praying
for all the wrong reasons,
hold my Bible like a weapon
against the violence of my thoughts.
there is good, there is evil
there is right, there is wrong.
are you feeling true compassion
or asking, „what’s in this for me“?
there are desperate measures
for desperate times…
is it the truth, is it a lie?
there ain’t NO in-between!
i trip… i stumble.
i fall down… i crawl,
i try to find my way out
of this maze of compromise
from the valleys of doubt,
through the wasteland of surrender,
tryin’ to plant one seed
at the foot of my own grave.
now, what is it you believe in
what do you really stand up for?
are you chasing shadows,
are ya runnin’ with the herd?
do you spend your life hiding
inside shades of grey…?
can’t you see it my friend,
there is no in-between.
can’t you see it my friend…
you can’t live… in-between.
