The Sirens will sing



                                                                  
                                                                  
                                           Yes, it's empty in the valley of your heart


The sun, it rises slowly, but you will walk
The fears, the failures, will no longer take part

I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

The sirens will sing but I will tighten the rope and we will hold onto hope







Bind me tight-- I'll find strength in pain
I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again









You will have other things to fill your time
You will take what is yours and I'll take mine
Know the truth and refresh your broken mind





The sirens will sing but I will tighten the rope and we will hold onto hope





Oh! Block my ears!  I can see the widow and orphans through my tears!

The pain and anguish I can no longer stand!

Let me die with mine own hand!





Find strength in pain
God will change your ways
You’ll know your name as it's called again





The sirens will sing but I will tighten the rope and we will hold onto hope


Homer's Odyssey, Mumford & Sons-"The Cave", and my own experiences.

Hello my name is...


Regret
I’m pretty sure we have met
I’m the whisper inside
That won’t let you forget
Every single day of your life






Defeat


I know you recognize me
Just when you think you can win I’ll drag you right back down again
‘Til you’ve lost all belief


These are the voices, these are the lies
And I have believed them, for the very last time…

Child of the one true King

I’ve been saved, I’ve been changed, and I have been set free
I am no longer defined
By all the wreckage behind

The one who makes all things new
Has proven it’s true





I am a child of the one true King
