Beyond the light On the edge of darkness A hope remains The hands of kindness As they reach towards me I feel their comfort Friends for now Tomorrow Sadness The thorns in life that cause my pain Relent, but only When they refrain From offering me The slings that hurt me The tears once gentle Now flowing freely I am I You are you I'll never say words In the hope that I'd wound If you decide to play that way You might die lonely Me I am not afraid The light grows stronger As I open my eyes My wings will lift me Up into the skies The ground below will never scar me If soaring above It cannot touch me.
