DESPERATELY SEARCHING

There's things I've done in my lifetime,
I wish that I could change.
I'm weighted down with burdens,
And dragging heavy chains.

To find some peace within my soul,
is something I cannot see.
Forgiving myself is the hardest part,
About just being me.

My mind feels like a twister,
It keeps going around and round.
It makes me feel like giving up,
I cannot slow it down.

It's hard to carry this life I bear.
I need to know that you are there.
Break these chains that bond my heart.
Lord set me free, for a brand new start.
