ECSTASY

In ecstasy, I call his name,
That moment I can’t feel the pain.
Thank you God for giving me,
This graceful rush that sets me free.
Floating above the darkness,
I touch something inside, divine.
A penitent hope that out there,
Happiness and peace gonna find me some time.

I work each day and then I drop,
Holds back the losses until I stop.
TV at night so my brain’s stone dead,
I wait for sleep, my gut full of dread.
But floating above the sadness,
I touch something inside, divine.
A penitent hope that out there,
Happiness and peace gonna find me some time.

Bridge
I know there’s nobody up there,
Just some crazy part of myself.
Pig-headed fool who won’t give in,
Dammed yet I will survive.

In ecstasy, I love them all,
My own dear ones, their beck and call.
A new soul mate comes at a cost,
You won’t win back what you have lost.
Easing towards the darkness,
While the angels are still all mine.
A penitent prayer that out there,
Happiness and peace will find me in time.
