Your struggles, in vain
you think them to be.
But it's not their approval
which will set your mind free.
They'll tug at your heartstrings
and cause you to cry.
But I swear that their words
wont prove to be lies.
Dwell not on their acts,
but rather on yours.
We'll search through your heart
for which fleeting thing soars.
We'll prod in the darkness
through all that you fear,
through dark storms and winds,
through all you hold dear.
We'll strengthen your name
and break down your walls,
and stumble down paths
from which the truth calls.
We'll find that one secret
that was never quite clear.
And I'll be there beside you,
your heart I'll hold near.
