#stronghold
So you've broken the cycle of addiction
as it's no longer around here today.
You have played a big part in its eviction
and caused it all bravely to go away.
It was good to see its days were all numbered
even though it was around for so long;
you succeeded where the others had blundered
to be standing here with those who are strong.
Keep a clear mind now and be not complacent
to allow it into your life again
for its stronghold may once more be adjacent
in resisting all you'll strive to attain.
But who else here knows how hard it has all been?
You'd only have to look back then to see;
the hopelessness caused before on one's life screen
that captured all those moments which were free.

Stone me, shout at me, curse me, shoot me, you are my last stronghold, I'm sorry, love me

The liquidity of rage, swoons like a red ocean.
It is a tidal fury that rises, rises, rises.
Within its climatic ascension, exist an anxious torture.
Thoughts rush in, pacing on what conclusions will come.
These waves have come before, the carnage is extreme.
And while the destruction strikes the shore, the bastions will stand.
Ruin though, shall come, and each storm stands testament to that reality.
The walls will fall, and all will breathe a final sigh of relief, at the end.

When verse
was terse
it took
a party
with total
regard to
race and
Union still
a Republican
stronghold here
and that
satisfied again
where we'd
put him
on top
of himself
the sea

You didn't just call me out
But you called me in
Into marvelous light
Not just out of sin
And I can't bear to stay
But I'm afraid to go
God, I don't even know
What it is I'm holding onto
anymore (x2)
Aren't You worth it?
Aren't You worth it?
You're worth all I have
and then some
God, You're worth it
You're worth it
I'll give all I have
and then some
And I don't have to stay
I'm not afraid to go
God take all that I have
all that I've been holding onto
Make it Yours

Over the wild blue sea
across a world of turmoil
Through deep forests
and wild skies
Lies a place
ancient and mighty
High towers look gloomly down over iron gates and broken walls.
This was once a place of strength,
a fortress of might
a stronghold against the darkness.
But time has played Its role
rusting the polished metal
rotting away at the foundations.
Its time has already come and gone
The fortress is not but a heap of ruin
a long gone shadow in the distant past.
Over magnificent peaks
rushing rivers and sprawling cities
Through tempest
storm and shroud
Does it lie
Slumbering silently
in broken ruins.
