I Will Change My Ways

These lyrics have recently hit home for me in my life at present, and I'd like to share them:) I know many see these as a break-up song lyrics, but it has many meanings, which is super neat and talented I think in song lyrics.

"It's empty in the valley of your heart. The sun, it rises slowly as you walk, Away from all the fears And all the faults you've left behind.

The harvest left no food for you to eat. You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see But I have seen the same I know the shame in your defeat.

But I will hold on hope and I won't let you choke, On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain And I will change my ways I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time. You take what is yours and I'll take mine. Now let me at the truth Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears. I can see widows and orphans through my tears I know my call despite my faults And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope And I won't let you choke On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain And I will change my ways. I'll know my name as it's called again

So come out of your cave walking on your hands And see the world hanging upside down. You can understand dependence When you know the maker's hand

So make your siren's call And sing all you want I will not hear what you have to say. Cause I need freedom now And I need to know how To live my life as it's meant to be

And I will hold on hope And I won't let you choke On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain And I will change my ways I'll know my name as it's called again."

My Cave is depression, dependence. what's yours, do you have one? have you had one in the past you have walked out of?

My Sirens are the negative thoughts that bombard my head whenever i try to do the right, healthy and best thing for me in the moment. the sirens never seem to shut-up, but you just learn how to speak back, ignore or just push through the lies to the light, to the truth.

I liked to read what others have thought about the words and appreciated them greatly.

a new mantra - I will find strength in Pain.
