So here I rest I've come undone Somewhere behind these eyes Rising from the thorns Beyond the endless nightmares There's still a soul I'm reaching out to catch a breath To brave the storm The fog is closing in Upon a freezing night Far from the love I've known Give me the strength to carry on Deep in the forest I am alone again A warmth begins to rise Fighting back the dread And when I close my eyes I swear I smell the smoke I used to know before the fall And now you're gone There's a fire Set ablaze in my heart Casting a shadow On the cycle of my thoughts That pull me away From the dance of the gods Leave it behind me To burn in the dawning light Sure as the spring Casts light on the snow I have awakened To the ashes anew They're burning away Though I yearn to hold on Knowing that I can accept this life Unblinded, renewed Out of the darkest night No one could help me find the way But in the new spring dawn I find the strength to carry on
