Don't try to reach me, 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 don't speak a sound
  Don't take my heart away from me
  And they think I fell down
    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 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]
    A teardrop falls from up in the heavens
  Drowning the sorrow of angels on high
  For the least of the helpless, the hopeless, the loveless
  My Jesus, His children, He holds in His eyes
