I’ve wept for those who suffer longBut how I weep for those who’ve goneInto rooms of grief and questioned wrongBut keep on killingIt’s in the soul to feel such thingsBut weak to watch without speakingOh what mercy sadness bringsIf God be willing There is a train that’s heading straightTo heaven’s gate, to heaven’s gateAnd on […]

[Part I:] I am strongI am ableI spill milk on your tableThen I crawl like a babyJust to see if you save me I am sweetI am uglyI am mean if you love meI’ll try hard just to please youWhen I say I don’t need you I dress up with a conscienceWhen I think you’ll […]
