From the Deep

(Shadows fall… but I still breathe…)

Out where the broken road begins

Where hope bends low and the heart wears thin

I've dragged regrets through the dust and dirt

Waiting for a healing that doesn't hurt

Every sunrise steals the dark

Every spark becomes a mark

From the deep, I'm rising slow

Following a flame I used to know

Can't see the bottom, can't touch the sky

But I'm tired of waving goodbye

(From the deep…)

If scars could speak, they'd scream my name

If pain had weight, I'd break the frame

But grace don't ask what you deserve

It finds you when you've lost your nerve

So I kneel where the cracks run wide

For a hand to pull me to the other side

From the deep, I'm rising slow

Following a flame I used to know

Can't see the bottom, can't touch the sky

But I'm tired of waving goodbye

(From the deep…)

There's a voice that won't turn cold

Like iron rusted, but still bold

It hums a note I can't unhear

Even when the silence is all I fear

Some nights I'm steel, some nights I'm sand

Some fights I lose before I stand

But every morning cracks the stone

And I'm not fighting on my own

From the deep, I'm rising slow

Following a flame I used to know

Can't see the bottom, can't touch the sky

But I'm tired of waving goodbye

(From the deep…)

From the deep, still climbing out…

(Still climbing out…)

(Still climbing out…)
