I know You want me to come home
But the black things inside of my soul
Convince me to stay
They scream so loud, they scream so loud
Try as I may I just cannot drown them out
They scream so loud, they scream so loud
Try as I may I just cannot drown them out

Where is the exit?...
I have been searching for the exit...
Where is the exit?
I have been searching for the exit...
Take me out of this pit
Pull me out of this pit
This pit of slime, this pit of slime
This black pit of slime
Black slime, black as ink
This black pit of slime
The arms in the wall...
Reaching through the cracks in the wall...
The shadows are blocking the hall
Their shadows are blocking the hall
All of the arms are reaching through
The cracks in the wall
Are blocking the hall
The shadows are blocking the hall

Pull me out of this pit
Of black things, of claws and jagged teeth
And filth and stink and hate and fear
Pull me out

For I do want to hear You again
I still want to hear You again...
When You speak

For I still want to hear you again...
When You speak

Release me, release me

Where is the exit?…
Pull me out of this pit
This pit of slime
Black slime, black slime
Black as ink, black as tar
This black pit of slime
Where the arms are
The arms in the wall, the cracks in the wall...
And the shadows are blocking the hall…

And the voices they lie…
But I will believe, I do believe
That You are exactly who You say You are…
I will believe, I do believe
I will not be convinced otherwise
For I am Your sheep
And I know Your voice...
For I still want to hear You...
When you speak...
I still want to hear You...
I will believe, I do believe
I will not be convinced otherwise
Those voices they lie
Defend me from those lies
Defend me from the voices that lie
Defend me from the arms
From the cracks in the hall
And the shadows when they pull and they call
I still want to hear You...
When you speak…
