Resilience

Leaves fall on the ground

Weighing my footsteps down on my way through the hills

I hear no sound

But a strange beating nearly filling my mind

The light of day is slightly darkening

Clouds over a desperate wailing

Rising up, running out, going down

Listen to the voice inside you

Ancient laments from a distant age

A storm is coming our way

The sky is spitting out the thunder

Its thumping on the ground

And i can feel the rain

My innocence is blown away

It's gone forever

And i can feel the rage

It's running through my veins

I'm walking from the shelter, opening the fence

Leaving far behind those times of innocence

Things will never be the same

But you know you must find a way to go

Down in your soul

Dive in the deepest ocean that you've ever seen

Open your door

Look at your feelings like they're not what they seem

And as i stand here stricken by the lightening

I feel the rage that's running through my veins

I'm walking from the shelter, opening the fence

Leaving far behind those time of innocence

Everything is different

We must be feel the moment

When it's time to go

Just spread your wings and fly

Our new life is starting

Don't you let it go oh no

Now reach out to the sky

With the wind still rising

And though the journey's long, i know we're strong

No matter how, we will go along.
