If you know someone who has been hurt far beyond repair
If you’ve seen them mend that hurt a way that you’d never dare
Then behold that person rise again like phoenix from their ashes
You better know that they themselves are more grateful than you for their seconds chances
Neither you nor they should judge themselves or the other for what was willing of their actions
Please don’t think that they are weak for in reality they are vigorous and chosen
To lead the ones in the fleet to live their lives out open
To help understand and mend the broken
The ones to say I am one whose felt the demons creep deep with in my mind
To say I have listened to them, spirit fully broken and wished to be left behind
To say I have believed that if the cell of my heart was to be opened bats and cobwebs you would find
To say everyday I would have done anything to sabotage myself
Because my soul a demon had in his firm grip and was twisting it himself
If you stand here today proud you made it through that atrocious time
And you’re wiling to a friend say without being ashamed the story about how you once put your life on the line
So they can feel camaraderie
So you could help guide them to their glory
Than please know these people should never be afraid to tell the world their story
