An invisible weight on my chest
I feel it compress
Til there’s nothing left
It’s robbing me of quality breaths
And causing manic delusions of stress
I want to take you in
Like I want to take in air
But as I peer into darkened corners
It seems like you’re not there…
My greatest fear is that they’ll carry us out in bodybags
All three of us…
Oh, God, tell me, what have I done to deserve this?
I know til now I’ve prayed casually
But turns for the worst have changed me drastically
You’re the God of my youth, could you be the God of my present please?
It feels like we’re playing games
And it only heightens the pain
Why won’t you make some kind of change and take my pain away
My greatest fear is that they’ll carry us out in bodybags
All three of us…
Oh, God, tell me, what have I done to deserve this?
I know til now I’ve prayed casually
But turns for the worst have changed me drastically
You’re the God of my youth, could you be the God of my present please?
I don’t want to play
Any more games
Won’t you reach down and take
This virus away…
