Don't try to reach me
I'm already dead
The pain when it grips me
For things that I've done

Well I try to make you proud
But for crying out loud
Just give me a chance to hide away
Exhaustion takes over
Will this someday be over?

[Chorus]
Fearful tears are running down
The pain you've laid don't speak a sound
Don't take my heart away from me
And they think I fell down.....again

Daddy don't you love me
Then why do you hit me?
And Momma don't you love me
Then why do you hurt me?

Well I've tried to make you proud
But for crying out loud
Just give me a chance to hide away
Exhaustion takes over
Will this someday be over?

[Chorus: x2]

A teardrop falls
From up in the heavens
Drowning the sorrow of angels in high
For the least of the helpless

The hopeless, the loveless
My Jesus, His children,
He holds in His arms

He loves you, He sees you,
He knows you, protects you,
He needs you, He holds you
