“I am the light that you shine when the road gets dark. The stitches you need when you’re mending your heart. When nothing you do seems to fill the void we can rebuild what they have destroyed. A shadow is falling is covers the land. A new fight is starting so tape up your hands. Forever I will fall from broken chains. Oceans will rise and fall to your only son. The darkness that I became washed away with your blood. I’m at the edge of a cliff and it’s so far down, holding on to my faith and standing my ground. One love you have set me free. One love, when you died for me you left a song for the broken, a song for the lost, you made a stand for the fallen who carry a cross. Forever I will call upon your name. We stood the test of time. Created by design. I’ve seen the end and I still believe the kingdom repairs the broken like me.”
Also throw in some Hands/Everything In Slow Motion…. good stuff!
Very unexpected… so moving and such a well crafted song… very impressed…reminds me of a little bit of Sleeping Giant. Two thumbs up and a high five!
Thank you for the comments! I do actually love me some Sleeping Giant. Dynasty has become my favorite song of theirs.
Your song is extremely well done James. I look forward to hearing more
