Shines Through - Hopesfall

Lies I’ve deceived myself in this hour of solitude

Through the breaking of love and spirit

These words were spit from my mouth

The bitterness poured from deep within

My heart only to stain and harden my skin

Erasing the compassion

And ripping the joy

From inside of me

Let me go trying to rid myself of this frame

Wash it from my eyes

All the sad goodbyes

Make me feel again

(Leave me here

To reconcile

These unfinished plans)

Love broke me

Trials are in vain

I press on not knowing

What there is to gain

In all that I’ve failed

I have come to realize

Your truth shines through the pain
