Gratitude

IT IS NOT LOVE IF LOVE IS COLD TO TOUCH
IT IS NOT BELIEF, WHEN THERE IS NOTHING THERE TO TRUST COULD NOT SUBMIT WOULD NEVER BRING MYSELF TO HEEL -
DETERMINATION GROWS AS EACH TRUTH IS REVEALES TORN AND REPAIRED, JUST TO ENDURE IT ALL AGAIN -
WITHOUR A REASON FOR MY PLACE IN ALL THIS PAIN
THOUGH WELL CONCEALED THE SCARS THEY JUST COMPOUND
UNTIL THERE´S NOTHING LEFT OF WAHT WAS ONCE MY FORMER SELF MY GOD, LOOK AT WAHT WE ARE NOW -
WITHOUR REGRET FOR ALL THE TINGS THAT WE HAVE DONE

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE DOUBTS AND FOR ALL THE QUESTIONING
FOR ALL THE LONELINESS AND FOR ALL THE SUFFERING
FOR ALL THE EMPTINESS AND THE SCARS IT LEFT INSIDE
IT INSPIRED AND VOURAGE THAT IN ME
I´D NEVER KNOWN
AND IF IT SEEMS TOYOU THAT MY WORDS ARE UNDESERED I WRITE THIS IN GRATITUDE
FOR WHATEVER GOOD IT SERVES

SOMETIMES I WISH THAT YOU COULD SEE ME NOW
IN THE RIGHTFUL PLACE WHERE I KNEW I BELONGED
SOMETIMES I WISH THAT YOU MIGHT SOMEDAY UNDERSTAND
TO CLOSE ACHAPTER AND LAY TO REST THE PAST
BUT NOTHING WOULD CHANGE
WE MAKE THE BEST OF WHAT WE HAVE
FOR WE ARE MEASURED BY THE ACRIONS OF OUR LIVES WE BIDE OUR TIME-LET THE FUTURE UNFOLD LIKE IMMORTALS IN GREAT LEGENS TO BE TOLD MY GOD, LOOK AT WHAT WE ARE NOW-
WITHOUT REGRET FOR ALL THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE DONE

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE COUBTS AND FOR ALL THE QUESTIONING
FOR ALL THE LONELINESS AND FOR ALL THE SUFFERING FOR ALL THE EMPTINESS AND THE SCARS IT LEFT INSIDE -
IT INSPIRED IN ME, AN IMPETUS TO FIGHT
TO ALL WHO STODD WITH ME, WHEN WE STOOD AS ONE
THANK YOU FOR GUIDING ME, FOR BRINGING ME HOME
IF IT SEEMS THAT I´M OBLIGED TO SAY THESE WORDS
I WRITE THIS IN GRATITUDE
THE LEAST THAT YOU DESERVE
