Above The Storm

For a moment take my hand
As we run from the madness
Yes, the one that eats at your soul

The clock is ticking
As you start pacing back and forth
Hoping that this demon will rid you

This time you have a comrade
In a war that weakens the mind
As it buries the heart in dark ditches

For once let your smile be the maestro
Rather than the strings of some violin
See, when you let your passion become dust
The world watches as you are spread thin by the wind

For how long will you take on misery alone
When your wings break who will be there to catch you
Let’s burn down this broken down house of pain
With compassion’s flames

Let’s run through meadows
As the sun glistens your hair
Let me watch you dance to the sound of serenity
Show that breath taking beauty
One that has hades needing an oxygen tank
Come on darling be that fairy tale princess
And I will be at your service

Together will swim out of yesterday
And fly into another page of destiny
Let that heart be the pen to a poet
And make tomorrow filled of mystery
If you believe in yourself
There is no storm
That can hold your dreams prisoner
