Head Above Water
I've been to the deepest darkest depths of my own despair
And still managed to find its peace hidden deep, that was always there
I've walked into the murky waters of true hopelessness
And still know that life will thrive in the roots of a broken and tattered mess
I've walked alone, my heart of stone
And found the footsteps of someone I had always known
And Grief will try to keep me on the edge of an endless sea
But knowing how to swim will be the safety that carries me
