I'm already dead
 The pain when it grips me
 For things that I've done

 Well I try to make you proud
 But for crying out loud
 Just give me a chance to hide away
 Exhaustion takes over
 Will this someday be over?

 Chorus:
 Fearful tears are running down
 The pain you've laid dont speak a sound
 Don't take my heart away from me
 And they think I fell down.....again

 Daddy don't you love me
 Then why do you hit me?
 And Momma don't you love me
 Then why do you hurt me?

 Well I've tried to make you proud
 But for crying out loud
 Just give me a chance to hide away
 Exhaustion takes over
 Will this someday be over?

 repeat chorus twice

 A teardrop falls
 From up in the heavens
 Drowning the sorrow of angels in high
 For the least of the helpless
 The hopeless, the loveless
 My Jesus, His children,
 He holds in His arms

 He loves you, He sees you,
 He knows you, protects you,
 He needs you, He holds you
 (repeated a bunch of time
