EMOTIONAL





As the storm rages on
I sit in a corner
Gates closed
Facade calm
And the storm rages on

I cannot continue
The song is sung
My mind has forgotten
My body grown numb

Was I here for a reason
Can anyone say
Did I finish my job yet
Are my things put away

And the questions continue
To bone crushing proportions
With no end in sight
Sleep brings me no comforts

As this storm rages on
I sit in a corner
Gates closed
Facade calm
And the storm rages on

Lightening crushes my essence
There's quite a storm brewing
I can no longer control it
The floodgates are broken

Open to the torments inside
And yet there resides
A knowing I cannot explain
How a naked babe
Could endure this rain

As the storm rages on
I sit in a corner
Gates closed
Facade calm
And the storm rages on
