Now awake, my inner fire
As an image clouds the view
Giving way under your forceful intent
Lost in endless corridors
I try to move ahead, just to be swept away in the undertow
The depths are all I seem to know
Arrogant, self-righteous power
Camouflaged in noble ways
Fear and love now blur - as logic turns around
Deep inside the corridors
Empty lies tell me drowning is the easy way to go
I almost think sometimes I would try
Could I but skip past all my other lives
Dear God, please let me go
Don't make me have to do this all over again
Weakened protests disintegrate
In the labyrinth of your world
Have I let your cruel agenda
Have its way with me?
As the heavens sing life's praise
From a far horizon
Soon may I see light streaming in to
Brighten the paths of dreams I would choose
Life's compa**ion never leaves
And so sets mercy on its course
Softly spoken riddles urging me back
Into endless corridors
The vastness of the tide tosses me like leaves before the autumn wind
But who determines where I land?
The choices in my hand give me courage now to walk the path alone
Through the crossroads of life, I will try
Weakened protests disintegrate
In the labyrinth of your world
Have I let your cruel agenda
Have its way with me?
As the heavens sing life's praise
From a far horizon
Soon may I see light streaming in to
Brighten the paths of dreams I would choose
Walking, doorways
I'm walking through darkened doorways
And I can see a new horizon
Lifting my eyes to see every step I take
