Should It Begin... - Mark 'Oh

And now the storm begins to break

Oh could there be a hiding place

The thunder trembles in my veins

No mortal hand can choke the reins

I can’t disguise the sacrifice

The bitter truth, how sweet the lies

One thousand thoughts to comprehend

Should it begin, or should it end

I heard a cry that turned to laughter

Amidst the turmoil deep inside

The voice will ring forever after

Oh can my conscience not be bribed — enough

To dwell on thoughts of fortune

And let my sanity survive

And not to live a life of caution

Or must I leave — just to arrive?

‘Chorus'

The heat of fear has let me colder

The demons find no place to hide

I seek the strength of men much bolder

Oh come and line up side by side — to tear

In shreds the foe to whom I’m losing

God in who else can I confide

Is the answer so confusing?

Or must I leave — just to arrive?
