A beginning and an ending;
our directions never intending
to lead us to such a day.
So consumed by survival here;
our focus leaves us lost and we're
unwilling to lift our eyes and look away
The air now cold, the dark surrounds
our tired souls. Our fears abound
and we wonder why they didn't stay.
We must keep moving though the darkness hides
the path. We persist in emptiness that chides
our attempts to find our way.
In shadows we dwell with plastic smiles
that fool each other for miles and miles
accepting death as life and night as day.
Until a distant spot appears
A ray of hope sustained for years
warms the air and lights the way.
And I am again alive and strong.
I believe again that I belong;
From a darkness cold and empty
your love has resurrected me.
