Be still my heart...

be still my heart
sit down my soul
come over and rest
perhaps be made whole

be not afraid
of this journey ahead
yes, the road rocky
fight on, instead

look to the mountain
for a help, for a touch
aware that your fearing
it's all too much

you will be ripped open
oh soul, you will cry
oh broken spirit
you'll wish you could die

you will wish for an end
to the torture and pain
you will weep for forgiveness
you'll feel crushed, insane -

even lonely and tired
and lost in the dark
own it and be it
don't shy from the mark

of a scar on your being
of the slice of the knife
that cuts out the tumors
invading your life

be still my heart
be brave my soul
embrace all of you
and in time -

be made whole
