Invisible Bars
Keep me awake Lord, keep me on my feet.
Keep me awake Lord, as I'm falling fast
asleep.
I've been working all night long.
It's been two days now since I've had
sleep now gone.
I work so hard Lord for everything I have,
Can't seem to get ahead Lord, my wretched life is so sad.
My heart is crying, I feel so alone,
I don't know which way I am going, or
where I belong.
I know I am so confused,
My heart feels so used up and abused.
I don't think he stays because he really
loves me...
I think he just stays, cause he likes to
let things be.
He tries to convince himself that he needs
me by his side,
But he's so insecure that he wants
complete control,
that to himself he's willing to lie.
And he's not really happy Lord as he tells
me each and every day,
Just how much our life together bugs him,
in each and every way.
He wakes up complaining of how he wish he
could be,
And he's always trying to be controlling,
as he wants things to be just the way he wants them to be.
And inside I'm just dying, I don't know
what to do,
I spend so much time crying, as I am
feeling so alone and confused.
He doesn't try to touch me, he doesn't
reach for me like he used too.
He thinks because he can't himself, that
he shouldn't even try to make love to me in any way like he used to do.
Anymore it seems that all he wants to do
is fight.
He's less concerned with how I feel, and
how things should be, because he only wants to prove he's right.
What Lord is it that you want me to do?
Show me Lord, cause as it is, I don't even
have a clue.
Two souls Lord is all we are anymore just
serving time.
I'm so desperately alone, but it would do
no good to whine.
I'm just waiting Lord, and serving my
time,
Behind these invisible bars Lord, that my
soul is locked behind.
