Unravel Me

Tears stream like water, rain in the night
A heart that still hungers for all to be right
Stoned by a circle, mocked while on stage
Emotions grow heavy from pain into rage
Scabs that were healing I picked them apart
All to uncover, I had to restart.

Purity, The essence of the soul
Security, Only in your arms
For the ship is overtaken by rough waves
I know that You’re the one who saves
Hear me while I sit
In the dark.

Carelessness, comes from movie clips inside my mind
Walls built to last start to unwind
And I can’t take the ache within the knots
It’s as if all I’ve learned I just forgot
For the flames of bitter yesterdays just ignite
Restless with this walk, I lose my sight

Purity, the essence of the soul,
Security, only in your arms,
For this ship is overtaken by rough waves
I know that You're the One who saves
Hear me while I sit 
In the dark.

But, I’m not alone
No, I’m not alone
I'm Going to the other side
I must resist this fear, 
And
Come alive!
