Release me from my pain and fear

     that plagues my days and nights

That ties my body up in knots

     and makes my chest feel tight

Belief eludes my bitter soul

     as I dine on sour stew

My heart is hiding in the dark;

     drinks a cynical brew

Oh, to find a stray light of hope

     leading me back to home

Where idle chatter fills my ears

     and warmth kills need to roam

Let me find serenity's stream;

     wade in balance and peace

Let go of what has come and gone

     securing mind's release
