this ache inside continues to grow
it has no release, nowhere to go
never can I catch a break it seems
the pain continues on endlessly

people keep getting hurt, and nothing I can do
just watching it all crumble, tearing my heart in two
I pray every night for a better tomorrow
still though, am consumed with all this sorrow

why? i don't understand for the life of me
why can't my heart be set free?
now I'm worried about my Dad, because of last night
he's having chest pains, how I love that man with all my might

I'd cry, but what's the use, just a waste of tears
Still left here I am with the same fears
Finally, I'm speaking up and saying what I feel
Maybe that's good I don't know, just makes it more real

This heart can't take anymore, the pain just goes on and on
I feel it in my heart, my soul, my mind, that something is very wrong
I hear the whispers from the heaven, sending down a message to me
I can't understand what is being said though, but the signs I do see

So Mom if you are up there, please send me some of your angel grace
I need to feel a moment of calm and peace, if only a trace
God, if you are listening, as I know that you are
Your children down here need help, please before it's too late, and I become just a falling star
