Living In the Shadow

If I'm lucky really lucky
Today I might awake
And spare this face
I see each time I shave

The emptiness and meaningless
Of days and nights in deep distress
Perplexes me
Did I escape an early grave

What do I do or say to You
What do You want with me
How can I ever measure up
To Your expectancies

What use am I to You
What would You have me do
I still feel Your hand on me

Unconditionally You bear with me
As I choose to bleed inside
I want to live
In the shadow of The King

I cast an eye into the wind
And wonder if the pain begins
Will You walk with me
Maybe I should walk with You

I used to feel You by my side
Back then I didn't want to hide
I'd run to You
As I felt You wait for me

I want to reach for You
And feel the light
That used to blind me in the night
And throw myself upon the ground
And beg for your release

From the sea that's drowning me
Give me air so I can breath
I want to live outside myself
The way You want me to

I want to live
In the shadow of The King
