Thrown to the cold ground
Abandoned in the wasteland
Imprisoned in a dark room
Waiting for the end
Waiting for the time
when we begin a new life
unburdened by the backlog
Fears lost and found
Finding what we had
Searching for redemption
Falling by the wayside
Beaten down
We raise our heads as one
Blinking with the sunlight
Crawling from the wreckage
Tending wounds
Singing to our souls
Dancing to the heartbeat
Opened to the promise
of coming times
Opening our eyes
Reaching hands are open
Praying for forgiveness
with hope abound
