Tides of Terror

Scared of this world Scared of this home Scared to death of what we all will become Losing my sight Losing my hope Losing my grip on how I will cope Like oceans approaching the shore Another thought I can't control Wild seas and restless weather These tides of terror are drawing nearer Sleepless nights from countless worry Always terrified I can't go on feeling this way Got to keep my head above the water I can't go on living this way Got to cut loose before I go under We bare scars on our hearts The past won't leave us broken We have the strength to carry on See how far we've come Look at that new horizon We have the strength to carry on Feeling of pain Crushing of fear Trembling of thoughts that I will disappear When will this end? How will I go? Give me a reason to remain afloat Like oceans approaching the shore They're crashing in We have come so far in this life But there's always something waiting To turn against us in the best of times When will the tides change When we can feel safe in our lives Safe in our homes Safe in this world Let's build a better place that we don't fear A place where we can survive There's a need to remind ourselves That there's still hope out there Our lives can change for a better tomorrow But we must change ourselves today There's hope beyond these tides of terror We can find our way
