Here, the sands fly through the air
Here, the water rages against the shore
Here the sky rains fire and brimstone
Here my world ends aflare
Here I stand on rocky shoal
Buffeted by elements and beaten by words
Memories of things that haunt my soul
A scream rents the air
I take hold of nothing, there is nothing to claim
All my false strengths and lies have left me
I am laid out, naked and ashamed
All my faults, guilt and dreams for the world to maim
Here I lie on soil my flesh to rend
I choose to give way to the pain inside
My soul to the netherworld will descend
A lost cry; the storm dies
At once I hear you cry my name
At once I hear you scream for my pain
My heart burns to answer but
My fear holds me down
Yours hands take hold
You refuse to let go
Persistently you call my name
My eyes open
Instantly the storm's reborn
Dark hands despairing reach out for me
You hold me tight against your breast
You refuse the darkness me even to see
You lead me safely through the storm
And though I want to give in and die
You refuse to lose the fight
My soul returns to me
Your hands I hold
Your light I keep
Forever this love I have
Burning within me deep
You showed me the way when hope was lost
You gave me life when I gave up
You gave me hope where I had none
A soul is reborn
