Shelter

The singing of the wind has filled my head
It's coming down upon me, I'm not sure if I'm dead
The rain is stinging me, I swear I can't escape its kiss
Amidst this lonely, lonely road, concrete to meet my fist

I'm not that strong, I'm not that strong

The cold air reaching me, my arms outstretched above
My voice a failing song which never sang enough
Thunder begins to roll and lightning flashes bright
Helpless in my despair, a voice called deep inside

Under a swaying tree, the wind still moves with stride
No light to pierce the clouds, except what's on the other side
Screaming cannot be heard no matter how hard I try
It's like God himself had spoke and all stood still in time

I'm not that strong, I'm not that strong

The cold air reaching me, my arms outstretched above
My voice a failing song which never sang enough
Thunder begins to roll and lightning flashes bright
Helpless in my despair, a voice called deep inside

Am I dead? Am I dead? All vanity is gone
Crushing waves break through, and I'm finally going home
Drowning in oceans now, I'll never breathe new air
This long goodbye to you, I'll die in my despair

And the sun burned the clouds away

The sunlight lit the way, marking out the lines
One last look at life as it washed away with the tide
The dam broke free!

I am immersed in the splendor of the ocean
I am the one who lit the sky on fire
Burning, burning in the night
Burning, burning blackened sky
With your eyes of fire

Set ablaze the heavens, burn with fire for glory
Great God of the universe, you are our shelter

The cold air reaching me, my arms outstretched above
My voice a failing song which never sang enough
Thunder begins to roll and lightning flashes bright
Helpless in my despair, a voice called deep inside

Am I dead? Am I dead? All vanity is gone
Crushing waves break through, and I'm finally going home
Drowning in oceans now, I'll never breathe new air
This long goodbye to you, I'll die in my despair
