Doubt,
The answer to my fears,
The night,
I lay awake with tears,

Doubt,
The question left unasked,
The night,
Character left unmasked.

Alone,
Lost in the sea,
Turn out the lights,
Whisper to me,

Again,
Follow my heart,
Lead me astray,
Never apart,

Can you hear me,
Can you see me,
Can you say my name,

What's in a message,
A moment,
A brand new day

In darkest night,
In deepest cold,
Away the shadow,
Deepest fear,

In growing stillness,
Dying breath,
Live this truth,
Of my caress.

A carol of breaths,
They wind and they blow,
They call from the depths,
"Arise, and bow low,

Arise and take heed,
For you are my own,
My blood and my kin,
Else I don't condone.

Arise and seek plains,
Forests and trees,
And from what you find,
Take sight of the seas.",

And with that they left,
They split up to find,
The peace of their master,
Their own peace of mind,

For eons and more,
They searched in their hearts,
But nothing was spotted,
On none of their parts,

With heads held in shame,
They sulked and caroused,
They found in their minds,
Their master, abused,

They rushed back to find,
Their lord, gone from sight,
And yonder the pale,
They heard of his plight,

"I hear of your end,
To your journey, a lie,
There was no peace,
Never, surprised?

But found you may have,
The will to go back,
Explore the new valleys,
And find what I lack,

There was no great quest,
All was for you,
You give you the chance,
To run, a redo,

To give my own life,
So you may yet live,
And this is for you,
The last gift I give."

And with that they left,
Not mourning his death,
But praising his life,
A new chance for breath.

A feather bobbing on the breeze,
I fall from fame.

Not soaring to new heights,
But catching blame.

We don't win,
We don't lose,
In spring or winter,
Just following blues.

Like a feather in the breeze,
We all fall.

The real choice comes,
When we stand tall.
