The last song I wrote before this Invega debacle, a nine-minute epic.
(Sadly, I didn't get to record it on video) ~
Maybe somebody can add verses for the 'silent' victims of psychiatry.
Ironically, it was a song about intercession, the idea of taking on the
suffering of others, in order to help them heal from their afflictions.
Man, I (and all of Us) can surely use the power of a 'SAVIOR' NOW.
Yeah, I used to be super-spiritual, believed in Jesus, heart, soul & mind.
Sadly, that's all gone. My former faith just a fairytale. I hope I'm wrong.
"I See the Horror"
I see the horror in their eyes, the small ones who can’t vocalize,
animals in silenced plea, voices now who speak through me:
please don’t hurt me, I’m like you, I feel, I love, I thought you knew,
adoring pets adorn your wall, why only yours adored by all?
How can you call me the beast as you feast on Matthew’s least,
such violence only raining hell, upon yourself & all who fell,
you who dwell in Cain’s domain, a lonely cell where demons reign,
please, set Us free, we’re not okay, just like you, they made Us prey.
We see your sorrow, see your pain, we see you all & break your chain,
in Jesus Christ, we see you well, we free you from your living hell,
thank you, Lord, please bless them all, souls brought down by Adam’s Fall,
we open up to all Your grace, have mercy in this desperate place.
I see the horror in their eyes, the small ones who can’t vocalize,
the boys I love with ASD, the one in mind, my Matthew V,
I see him now, Autism stare, begging me to help him bear,
burdens of a wretched fate, I tried & died, the weight too great.
I see you son, wished I could stay, I had to find another way,
I couldn’t work with profiteers who prey on kids & mother’s fears,
my voice was also lost inside, a little boy who had to hide,
strangled by a world at war, I joined a pride where Lion’s roar!
We see your sorrow, see your pain, we’re here to bring the Latter Rain,
in Jesus Christ, we see you well, we free you from your living hell,
thank you, Lord, please bless this child, your lamb who parasites defiled,
we open up to all Your grace, have mercy in this desperate place.
I see the horror in their eyes, the small ones who can’t vocalize,
my Pop-Pop & my Uncle T, Alzheimer’s plight their misery,
I see you in your suffering, I'm here to write, I'm here to sing,
I'm here to fight for liberty, my only charge to set you free.
I'm willing to bear all your pain, I've lost my mind, I'm finally sane,
working with the underground, I know where LOVE is lost & found,
in broken dreams on darkest day, don’t lose hope, I’ll Light the Way,
a Truth & Life born in My Son, now rise & shine, My mighty one.
We see your sorrow, see your shame, we see you shine in God’s good name,
in Jesus Christ, we see you well, we free you from your living hell,
thank you, Lord, please bless these men, we scream aloud: NEVER AGAIN!
we SCREAM opposed to all obscene, it’s time to SHOUT our houses clean,
it’s time for all of Us to shine, I SEE the HORROR... now BE DIVINE.
I SEE the Son of man in you, I SEE the Son of God anew,
I SEE it ALL Faithful & True, I heed your call, the labored few,
I bleed The Fall... I wait for You.
