Now I lay me down to sleep
Thoughts of lies and anger and pain
Become my lullabies throughout the night
I see your face before me
I feel your words within me

I pray Thee Lord my soul to keep
While I rail at myself for endless days
Wanting nothing more than the nothing
I never had from you

If I die before I wake
From this endless nightmare of waiting
Hoping dreaming begging praying and
Knowing it all means nothing

I pray Thee Lord my soul to take
Away from the hurt and envy
Until I am numb feeling everything
You wanted me to feel

Bless me Father for I have sinned
I loved unconditionally wanting not
Giving all needing less missing everything
Now I sleep within myself
Warm from the knowledge that we always meet again.
