Haven

Hollowmind

Compositor: Roberto Gutierrez

Morning rise, as I crumble
Down and have to face another day
There’s a search, yet unfinished,
For the essence of the one I now am and soon will be

As every ship demands a harbor to land in
I need to find my solid ground
Whenever there’s imbalance in between my selves
Someone has to give me shelter

Haven, haven – keep me safe from stormy nights
Right on the morrow bury my sorrows
Deep within a casket out of sight, my sight

Late at night, as I reckon
All the pieces of this maze I’m in
There’s a spark, yet unclear,
A perception that enlightens my internal debate

It seems wherever I may go the answer’s “no”
To every question that I make
Why have I taken just so long to realize
“Yes” lies with my kin, my blood tribe

Haven, haven – keep me safe from the awful truth
Bear no intrusion, heal the delusions
Rooted in the memories of my youth, poor youth

Just before my time runs out
Came to know the balance I’ve longed for is right within my reach
Good and bad I have been through
Only with these loving people (all around my soul) I could

Haven, haven - keep me safe from disbelief
Find me a reason for every season
I have spent in so much loss and grief, deep grief
