Lyrical Musings: We are Weak

This is the first Lyrical Musings post! I wrote these words over 4 years ago, and I'm glad that I can share them now. I was once told that words were power, and these lyrics are evidence of that assertion. Read one of my favorite lyrics after the jump.

We are Weak

Verse 1
Another moonlit night lookin' towards a suicide
What hurts so much?
What did you do?
Its just another little thing (another little thing)
It's so common to fall
so don't lose yourself
tonight

Verse 2
I say why don't you leave, leave, leave this town now
you're running around now, shoutin' peace at the door of your enemy
That seems so stupid, you wanna die today
Just keep moving forward, you shouldn't give yourself away....

(chorus)
All around you the sun was shining
while you fell through the holes in the floor
but i can see that the angels are crying..
as you pray for a better day
Oh God, won't you reach down and touch us,
to save us from the hatred of the day

Verse 3
You used to be the life of the party,
the one to laugh while we all fell down...
whatever happened to you? ..whatever happened to you?
(Repeat Verse 2)
Why'd you let the world take you out, Why'd you go and try to die?
You have to keep moving forward..To save yourself tonight
[Repeat chorus]

Verse 4
I love how we first met,
you had something to say,
you used to be so kind... I'm not blind,
I can see you're lost
I can see you're torn apart, that you became too self-involved
You know you lost it all...You cry,
Dear God wont you reach down and touch us, we need your help today
