Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray my lord, my soul he keep.
Because I can't stand another day,
of living all this tormented way.

Please don't make me trust him,
because it only breaks my heart.
Please make this just as easy,
as it was in the start.

Because lives are much too precious,
to play this game of chess.
And you're just loosing terribly,
making this horrible mess.

So please, can't you retire me,
lose me to a pawn?
Because life is getting too hectic,
and there's not another dawn.

And I don't want to offend you,
I'm just letting you know.
From a perspective on here on earth,
where there's no place to go.

Maybe you've forgotten to help,
forgotten to answer our prayers.
But I'm getting a little worried,
that maybe you're not there.

So I'm just praying for a little help lord,
maybe to get me through.
To not make me loose trust in everyone,
especially not in you.
