My, oh my Do I find myself facing a faceless giant swinging his gigantic arms bringing about his colossal hands together creating a thunderous clap His skin thicker than the crusts of the earth with a voice that booms from the corners of the skies My, Oh my Do I find myself stunned with fear as it puts its foot down shaking the ground beneath the soles of my feet How do I slay a giant such as he? He strikes me through my heart melting the inners of my mind shattering the bones beneath my skin eating away whats left of me. How? I've got no sword left in my hand my armor has crumbled turned into dust my spirit barely alive! I am Weak! unprepared! and unequipped! A soldier in shame! A warrior who has lost all who he is! My, Oh my Do I find myself crying in silence with no tears left to shed with rage that boils inside of my chest thinking that maybe this is it for me. My, Oh my Do these shadows fall upon me. Opening up scars that have healed Sinking me deeper and deeper down the cracks of the earthly soils swallowing me as I try to find myself beneath the ocean of pain. My, Oh my Do I find myself bleeding hurting, and screaming in silence My, Oh my! this giant gloats about as he strikes me down as he strips away every bit of my courage, and strength Oh, he gloats, and gloats and gloats ----- But My, Oh my! My, Oh my! Do I still find myself getting back up every time I'm struck down beaten up buried beneath the ground My, Oh my! Do I say to you my giant, "You strike me down a thousand times; I get back up a thousand and one times!"
