My skin is crawling through the darkness
hope feels gone
I'm breathing slowly tears are flowing
The pain is all too strong

My strength has perished
My happiness is gone

Chorus:
Still you remain
My hope lies in you
Tear me from my skin
Tear me away

Verse 2:
I've placed a wall around me
My voice can't get out
Surely the angels see my pain and so can you
Don't turn away, God hear my desperate cry
I'm screaming out to you

Your strength is building me
My happiness survives

Bridge:
Though grief has fallen over me
Bemused my eyes
Compassion and unfailing love
Surroundeth me
