fears assailant | the hope that comes from within

when your'e around, I feel awakened.

a certainty comes despite where fate can take us

the tremble of pain from within subsides;

and the laws of nature upon which which we abide

simpler man says: I'm paying for my sins,

but there's so much more than what crawls beneath my skin

a truer stage in the world of braves

for am I but, another: knave?

you took the call, from Him, you wake

and within my fate, you killed the snake

desperate and strung while screaming for kings'

along you come, graceful, with wings

wrapping yourself around me true,

little known and without shoes

an open heart

no truer song

from the shadow's slept you've forever long

been there for me I'm but naive

thank you for your Grace.

tend my broken parts

lift me out of the shadow

and into the sun;

your light saves in the heat of the fray

for when night comes the demons stay.
