In the Shadow of the Cross

She smiles

When she puts the pencil down

From her hand

For the last time

She closes her diary

And says a prayer by the bed

Raising her head to the wind

She lets the rain wash her face

And take away the tears

Doesn't feel any pain

She does not hate anymore

She becomes one…with the wind that carries her

As far as she remembers

There's something that's always wrong

Something should not be

Something cruel in His eyes

Questions

No one dares to ask

The Father

With the Sign of the Cross

She is the one who pays for his sins

When she

Raises her voice to the wind

"Thy will be done,

Here on Earth and in Heavens"

She doesn't feel any pain

She does not hate anymore

And becomes one

When she raises her voice to the wind

"Thy will be done,

Here on Earth and in Heavens"

She doesn't feel any fear

When stepping down from the cliff

And becomes one...
