I promise

I know that
    you fire has dulled
The flame so bright
    has suddenly gone cold

I know that it
  feels like there's no way out
That the walls close in
    and silence steals your shouts

I know that it's
  come to beat you down
This wall of despair
  threatens to make you drown

And I know that
    you can't see a way
To hold your head high
  and trust in the sun's rays

But I promise
    That everything will change
Your fire is only dull
    the sticks must rearrange

I promise that
    the bars will be replaced
Just as soon as you stand
    and the fears have all been faced

I promise that
    you're not alone
We're all right here
    from love you've sewn

I promise that
    you won't just fall
I'll lift you up 
      just give me the call

But I promise  most
    that the winds will turn
And from all of this,
      all this pain you will learn

And we'll look back
    ages from this day
With our hearts complete
    in every right way

And we'll smile at these times
  because they set us free
They open the cages
  and put in our hands the key

One day ages from now
    I promise you you'll smile
You'll look back at this mountain
    and thank god for every mile

For every mile makes you stronger
    let's you see who you truly are
And when the wind changes
      your wings will take you far

This isn't the end
    the pain won't last forever
I'm right here beside you
      let's put your heart back together
