Survive The Storm

Awakened by a crash

I find myself inside a nightmare

The storm's mighty rage

Wrought a wake of despair

All the monsters of the night

Have gone to seek shelter

In the face of this hurricane

They dare not appear

Terrified

I'm aching and stiff

I don't believe that I can go on

Renounce in doubt

Praying for the dawn

And warmth of the sunrise

I'm wandering aimless

Lost in the dark

I push myself forward

Through the gales and downpour

The terrible thought of failure is more

Abhorrent than the storm

Buffeted

I'm tired and weak

I must find the strength to carry on

Abstain in pain

Will it subside?

How do I know that surviving will show me

The way?

Must I decide?

How do I know that my struggle will be worth the pain?

Survive the storm

Quit vying for a hopeless belief

Press on forward

You know you want to concede in defeat

I can’t perceive

You already know you’re failing

I can’t believe

Your attempt is unavailing

I can’t waver

We will make you lose your way

I won’t falter

In this darkness you will stay

We will consume

Shepherd your doom

Give in to our destruction engulfing you!

This storm will subside

I know that surviving will bring me

The light of day

I must abide

I know in the morning the sunlight will

Show me the way
