about

A place everyone goes, a place of despair, hopelessness and loneliness.

lyrics

The way out of here is long
The path I have tread it has never been worn
I’ve never felt so alone
But I vow to carry on, I vow to carry on

When it feels like you’re falling apart
When something occurs and it rips out your heart
When all ahead seems dark
Call out just where you are, call out just where you are

When the pain of loss comes
When the shame of guilt says you don’t belong
When it feels like your strength has gone
Know that you’re not on your own
Know that you’re not alone

For when your feelings say just to just give up
When the ways that you’ve tried, all the doors have slammed shut
When you scream that enough is enough
Cry out to Him where you are, cry out to Him where you are

Hold to hope, saturate your soul with Him
Draw in close, never let go of what remains

When my three score and ten has passed
When I come to the place my next breath may be my last
I hope I can look at the past
And say all that I gave was my best
And say all that I gave was my best
I hope all that I gave was my best
