At the Lighthouse

V1:
I waited at the lighthouse for someone to come and save me, for some word to come and raise my sinking boat. All my anchors had failed me. Sea and kraken had scared me close to that cape where light should wave some hope amidst the shadows. I waited at the lighthouse for any kind of sign but the silence gave voices to my doubts.
Chorus:
This ship is going down down. And I'm going down with it. I am damned to the depths if someone doesn't save me now. I'm going down.
V2:
I waited at the lighthouse wishing, praying, begging should I stay or abandon ship now. I had no captain to steer me. No wind or waves to console me. The bottom of the ocean knows me by name and it beckons loud. One last chance dear lighthouse. Cast a glance my way. If you don't I'll give my last breath to curse you as I drown.
Bridge:
I waited at the lighthouse. Darkness evergrew with no light to answer to. Overwhelmed by orphaned demands. Salty tears lost in the sea. All my sails bleached by failure I surrender my challenge to the deep.

Grace to Go

You told me once that you were a safe place
Said, Go ahead and leave your guard at the gate
But I was ambushed by everything that I would come to hate
Cursing the watchmen that warned us to late
Draining all I could give, you turned my joy to disdain
Said, To bleed was my lot- but now I'm covering in stains
And I just don't have the grace to stay
I don't even know what it would take
To stay and deal with all that you would throw my way
I don't think that I can stay afloat
On this already sinking boat
Pater noster qui facit omnia renovantur
If I go I think I'll rediscover hope

The Stranger I Know

She is a fighter a mighty tower of ambition
Built upon the backs of Sweat and Tension
She is a driver she won't give up the reigns
Time's whip is at her back and she is already late
Her hair is straight as the road she knows
And in her heart is a restless soul
Her cage is her own bones
Say hello to the stranger I know
She wears a locket holding a thousand faces
Waking her at night to rise and plead their cases
She is a nomad and a self made orphan
Though she walks against the current it's the life she's chosen
She is as zealous as a greedy banker
Who in her fear exploits her own labor
Desperate to be every man's savior
Say hello to the stranger I know
She is selfish though her chores are selfless
She fears her last impression, serving is her own deception
She is a lover though she knows not Love
She thinks she's pouring water but it's her own blood
A broken empty vessel suffering for the cause
Where grace is for the helpless and for the lost
She asked for bread and they gave her a stone
Say hello to the stranger I know
She's tired but she'll never save herself
She'll call it heaven though it's really hell
He calls her friend but she calls him Sir
Say hello to the stranger I know
