Twice the heavens rained on me
to heartache I was no stranger.
I danced around dark forces that be
my trusted companion was danger.

Compelled by sorrow and drawn to pain
I saw no reason at all to seek shelter from rain.
Through heavy downpour
I stayed for more.

I sought out mysteries of untold kind
to find the strenght for peace of mind.
Yet through it all I saw the truth
wich I had learned in youth.

The only salvation from darkness that be
is plain and simple to make peace with me.
I am the creator of my own life and as it is,
so it is because I allowed this.

I had to make a break from the shame that shackled me
and by doing so I could set myself free.
It was no easy task I assure you
but it had to be done and I suffered through.

What I saw: there is no shame in being in pain
most of us try to escape through the rain.
It isn't a weakness at all
it's how we've been fostered to fall.

Looking back in time I can only say
my heart is with those who struggle still to this day.
My thoughts are with you
my strength of will to carry you through.
