Tempest

Destiny

She calls to me

Lifts me from my sleep

To come and see

Steal away the stars

From the sky

This tempest turns me and I don't know why

Empty promises and compromise

Conspiring now to fill

My head with lies

Clear the clouds from my mind

Take me away to

Where you reside

Through the veil

I see a mystery

Carnival of fools

Before their kings

Eternity

She beckons me

Wakes me with a scream

To come and see

"Father

Where, art thee?

Fathern

Don't hide from me!"

"God is not there;

He cannot hear you!

Don't waste your time,

He never speaks!

You've lost your sight;

You have no vision.

Don't be a fool!

I own your dreams…"

Lying drained too

Tired for sleep

Father take

My soul to keep

"Where is your God?

What are you thinking?

Call to him louder;

Perhaps he's asleep

Maybe he's laughing…

You're such a fool!

It's been quite awhile;

Leave him in peace…"

Where's the voice of peace

That comforts me

Touch me with your fire and heal me

Racing thoughts

That seem to chase the wind

On an isle of doubts

I'm waiting

Why have you forsaken me?

"Hear me now!",

I'm pleading

"God is not there;

He cannot hear you!

Don't waste your time,

He never speaks!

Your God has left you!

Your cries sicken me!

Where is your pride?

Get off your knees…"

"Here I stand

In the midst of your pain

I still the storm and trials within."
