I know why you have the nightmares
Why you fear a demon hoarde
I know why you seek the light
But cannot find the Lord
I know why the peace evades you
Why the universe is still
I know why you wish it speak
And share with you its will
I know why you seek the angels
But find no presence near
And why you think you’re all alone
Why silence is all you hear
I know where your future lies
And why you dream of love
I know what your secret is
Your prayer to God above
I know why on running to
You really run away
I know why you fear the truth
And bid the lie to stay
I know why you spurn the good
Destroy the gifts you’re given
I know just how easy now
It is to be so driven
I know why you prefer the wind
Be lost inside the storm
I know why the earth should scare you
And you shudder at the form
And I know why I cannot tell you
The answers you seek to know
For I know just how to make you crumble
To bring you nought but woe
I know why I will not tell you
Why I’ll protect you to the last
Why my love for you is never-ending
Even though it is the past
I know why you have the nightmares…
I love this!
