Shattered
Intro
Verse 1
Here I stand before the edge, pondering my past
A living hell from whence I came, bitter trials of fire
Horrors I can’t face, joys that didn’t last
Leaving me alone with death as my only desire
Verse 2
The broken pieces are in my hand
I stare down into a shattered reflection
My life slips away, to fade away like wind carried sand
My only wish is to kill this inner infection
Chorus
What has life become for me?
I am a broken memory fated to fade away
What does life have left for me?
The shattered pieces in my hand take me into the gray
Verse 3
Is there any hope for the survival of my soul?
The void below me is bottomless and deep
Would You miss me if I stepped off and let the grave take its toll?
Or maybe take me away, my heart forever Yours to keep
Verse 4
The life I have known has vanished like mist in the morning sun
The shattered life in my hand melts away
A piercing light floods my soul, a new life has begun
Life fills the emptiness, love is here to stay
Chorus
What has life become for me?
My past a broken memory to fade away
What does life have left for me?
A renewed hope in the light of the Son, forever here to stay
Ending Verse
My shattered reflection is made new
My bitter memories are now few
Take my hand and I’ll show you the Way
He can lead you out of the gray

another lyrical composition i wrote this morning. ive been struggling with my past lately, and this is what happens when i relive the hell i endured as a child. but...as you see in the end...no matter how desperate and dark the memories may be...they are just that...memories. There is always hope, always love, always peace, at the end of the long road. All you have to do is reach for it, and choose to take it.
