Beating rain hammers on the window pane
tears flowing from your heart
Feeling a little down,
needing life support
Yeah, we're still feeling aftershocks

Consumed, this will not consume me
Confined, it will not bind my spirit within meConstricted, a little twisted never steady
constant pain has me running on empty...
but if all I can do is continue
I will continue until that last breath escapes me
Not conforming, 
never quitting
No, this pain will not extinguish me

I grow tired
yes, I grow weary
Impatient and  solitary
i can feel the earth move beneath me
Trying to be calm \
knowing I'm walking  into the eye of the storm

Consumed, this will not consume me
Confined, it will not bind my spirit within me
Constricted, a little twisted never steady 
constant pain has me running on empty...
but if all I can do is continue,
Continue I will, until my last breath escapes me
Not conforming, 
never quitting
No, this pain will not extinguish me


Scream, my soul wants to scream
frustration and helplessness accumulate quickly
but I'm not conforming
never quitting
No, this pain will not extinguish me

And though words won’t ever suffice To communicate,  Clarify,  The peace I feel in giving you  This wrangled, broken heart of mine I shall do my best to show you What those scattered, simple note’s Song sounds like Yes, you’re the Beauty that keeps me reaching  The smile beneath my tears The hidden road pointed out to me after all these years; Your imperfections only add  To the light reflecting from your smile Your flaws -the cracks through which His Love shines  You’re the hallelujah  In my song’s reprise
