O' Heavens Gate above me as you stay heed my call of pain As I sit and pray. 'Tis life that broke me, with hellish pain unforgotten. 'Tis life that stranded me and let my soul be broken. That beautiful crystal, that shone with the brightest of lights, was crushed to smithereens before disappearing out of sight. Oh, it disappeared, never again to be seen, yet in its place there remained A bright everlasting sheen. It shone light into the darkness of my soul, A light that expells whatever may be foul. For it is hope that keeps us, however sane we might be. It is hope that keeps us alive, in a world filled with treachery.

A Broken Prayer for Hope
O' Heavens Gate above me as you stay heed my call of pain As I sit and pray. 'Tis life that broke me, with hellish pain unforgotten. 'Tis life that stranded me and let my soul be broken. That beautiful crystal, that shone with the brightest of lights, was crushed to smithereens before disappearing out of sight. Oh, it disappeared, never again to be seen, yet in its place there remained A bright everlasting sheen. It shone light into the darkness of my soul, A light that expells whatever may be foul. For it is hope that keeps us, however sane we might be. It is hope that keeps us alive, in a world filled with treachery.
