Old Wound
Hear the storm rage outside my door
Shakes my bones right to the floor
Listen to a whisper build to a shout
Give me strength to fight this now
Fear the fist but stand your ground
Soon you see the time will come
To make it end, begin again
Today I healed an old wound
One I could not hide
A fathers hate that scarred my pride
Broken hearts & beaten lives
I write these words to save my life
Looked into the mirror to see my pain
If I fight what will I gain
Am I a better man or just the same
A son alone without a name
Who's the one to really blame
Full of fire I burn my shame
Know the path, stay the course
No one can douse your flame
Today I healed an old wound
One I could not hide
A fathers hate that scarred my pride
Broken hearts & beaten lives
I write these words to save my life
