From the recording The Weight of Severed Wings
Lyrics
I've seen the abyss
Stared into the void
Felt the weight
of my existence
My soul destroyed
The cracks still remain
A map of where I've been
But each scar's
a testament
To where I'll begin
The scars taught me strength
The night brought me dawn
The suffering I endured
learned to embrace the calm
Now I see the beauty
In the small things
The support
that surrounds me
The peace
each new day brings
When the burden
of the world becomes
too much to bear
The uncertainty inside
starts to spread everywhere
In this moment, I am alive
Every breath a gift
Every day a surprise
The pain was the price
for this beautiful life
I walked through the flames
yet I still survived
I once thought happiness
was a distant shore
Now I find it in moments
I once ignored
Through the storm
and the strife
The world provides
me with life
Finding my strength
letting my spirit flow
In this moment, I am alive
Every breath a gift
Every day a surprise
The pain was the price
for this beautiful life
I walked through the flames
yet I still survived
The hands that held me
when I was prone
The voices that whispered
you're not alone
Love was the anchor
when I felt adrift
A precious, saving,
heaven-sent gift
In this moment, I feel alive
Every day a gift
