The Revival By Michael Byron Dale Hamilton
I have felt the love
I have felt the hate
I have felt the life leave my heart
I have felt the ones I loved betray me
I have felt ones care from afar
I have always wanted a few besides me
Without them I am nothing
Whether you are there from afar
Or walking by my side
Whether patting my back
Or giving me a tender kiss of life
I have been mocked with riches
And I tore myself down
"Life is going to hell" I said
As i crossed on to a dangerous path of life
But after today
Things have went my way
And nothing now feels wrong
The past is gone now
These times anew
But at least these times
I'll spend time with you
I was the voice of which could not be heard
I was the song which couldn't be sung
I was the one that went unnoticed
I was the bell that was un-rung
I was one of the lucky ones
I had my friends there all the way
To revive me from my aches and sorrows
Bringing back my true life
I noticed life was passing by
As life soared right by my side
I gathered all my strength and spread my wings
And now with life I fly
