Will You Keep Out All the Sadness?

Oh my God, my head is sick, so full of death

Sometimes I don't want to live

This war within is a veil over me

And if all is lost, how can I ever win?

Mercy on me

I am drowning, drowning

Have mercy on me

I am drowning, drowning

Oh my God, what have I done?

All this pain is breaking me down

I tried so hard but I am undone

Is all there is just dust and the wind?

I am drowning

Oh my God, these depths are dark

And hope's far off; the world's gone mad

Its ill intent pulls the chains over me

I'm done, I quit, I'm giving in

Oh my God, what have I done?

All this pain is breaking me down

I tried so hard but I am undone

Is all there is just dust and the wind?

Mercy on me

I am drowning, drowning

Have mercy on me

I am drowning, drowning

My existence here is quick and my thoughts become transfixed

Is there anything that's good? Oh anything of worth?

'Cause these demons haunting me never want to see me free

But Your waters of grace drowned the devil out of me

Oh my God, my head is sick

I was left for dead but you carried me away

I met You in the war for my soul

And I fought against you and thought I could win

I'm drowning in grace

I'm drowning in grace

Have mercy on me

I am drowning, drowning
