FORSAKEN

I've lost my sight
It's cold out here
Is that you?
The winds blows away a tear

I've lost my way
Help me
I'm scared
No, you won't be there
You... never... cared

Someone help me
protect me
I can't see

My body is freezing
give me your hand
it's much colder now
and I can't stand

when I needed you most
you were supposed to carry me across the land
but instead you blinded me
What footprint in the sand?

I will die
cold, alone
I don't need you now
I'm on my own

And if I go to hell
at least I won't be cold or ignored
while I burn forever
Good-bye Lord.
