Coda

Night outside grows white

I lie faceup in my shell

Open my eyes

Don’t feel like falling into blank space

Had allowed that life to drift

For I’ve chosen a different trail

When darkness fades

Don’t feel like falling into blank space

Want to be your light

Illuminate your smiles

Want to be your cure

Bridge between self and us

Want to be your prayer

Wipe the tears from your eyes

When the night returns

I won't collapse

I'm set to rise
