Echoes

Echoes By Kevin Robey January 6, 2014 If there was a time that I realized what I hide It’s the day that they saw the fire behind my eyes If there was someone in whom I'll never confide Anyone anywhere while I reside in these lies So scared of the sunshine in places they love I’m safer down here where the shadows are bright It’s not scary when echoes fit like a glove Call out for everyone and no one at night Don’t think I’m giving up, my faith isn’t used I’ll just dig through hell to rise above it all Two black eyes new I’m broken and freshly bruised Still searching the dark for my own wonder wall I see why you're scared, guess now that we know What I meant back then, when I couldn’t fight Revealed much more than words could ever show Saw these bright lights in the darkest of nights You won’t see me hide my insecurities Expect nothing less cause my fears live out loud With every degree of my abilities I’ll give you the answers up high from the clouds These words are like glass it happened so fast I started these thoughts now leaking with love The family tree from ashes of the past Means something more, what I was dreaming of
