Fred Small - I Will Stand Fast lyrics

The echoes of childhood whisper violence Cold wind beating out of the past Rage in your throat, muffled silence Hold on, I will stand fast In the darkness your guardians had left you / Cold wind... None to hear your cries, none to defend you / Hold on... Refrain: I will stand fast, I will stand fast You are safe in the daylight at last Nightmare and fear, they have no power here I will stand fast I will listen to the terrors that tried you / ... I will cradle the child that breathes inside you / ... Though you take the shape of a hundred ancient horrors / ... Though you strike at me and flee into your sorrow / ... Refrain Birds flash upon a branch in winter / ... Ice in the sun begins to splinter / ... You will walk with no fetters to bind you / ... All the love you have wanted will find you / ... Refrain I will stand fast
