Facing the Storm

A war with hope shadows my dreams

And builds my stress from a scabbard tree

I ignore the mess to favor my steal

To soon regret my own appeal

_

Now, here I stand facing the storm

Ready to fight till the night is owned

Traveling the stars with my fist ablaze

Igniting the sky in a fiery haze

Through the pain and tears I will face my fears

_

Standing amongst the shattered fields

Surrounded by an impossible foe

I will stand even on my own

_

Losing it all I must confess

Feels as though I made this mess

From this bed I’ll rise not rest

To take up the sword and fight the threat

_

All my friends come in to join

Seizing the ropes to help guide me home

Once we lived in a pile of ashes

Now I sail alongst solar masses

_

Here I stand facing the storm

Ready to fight till the night is owned

Traveling the stars with my fist ablaze

Igniting the sky in a fiery haze

_

Through the pain and tears I will face my fears

Standing amongst the shattered fields

Surrounded by an impossible foe

I will stand even on my own

_

I understand, I may lose

I may never see them soon

Victory is never assured in battle

This is a war not taught in school

_

All my friends by my side

They all still have their assuring smiles

All alone I once have been

Now I see them all as ones I love

_

So here we stand, facing the storm

Ready to fight till the night is owned

Traveling the stars with our fists ablaze

Igniting the sky in a fiery haze

_

Through our pain and tears we’ll face our fears

Standing amongst the shattered fields

Surrounded by an impossible foe

We will stand even on our own
