Identity

Do you know me?
What's my name?
When's my birthday?
Where do I live?
Why do I grieve?

Do you know me?
My favorite color?
Favorite food?
My cheek’s pallor,
When I don’t feel good?

Do you know me?
What do you call me?
Who are my friends?
What do I play?
When do I sleep?

Do you know me?
Where are my birthmarks?
My scars?
The deepest wounds
Of my bloodstained heart?

What makes me laugh?
What makes me angry?
Have you seen my soul,
It's hideous filth
Like darkness’s glow?

What do you know?
Don't tell me you know me
Because you don't know a thing.
 _________________________________________________________

And now you tell me I don't know you
That it's not the real you
But who are you really?
Are you the mask or the man?
'Cause you've worn your mask for far too long
You can't take it off now, you can't take it off.­

Nimbus

When tears well up like the nimbus
And darkness fills the land
When winds are stiller than a rock
And silence shuts the thundershock

When the downpour drenches the heart
And confusion echoes in the sky
When gales blow 'till the soul is shaking
And clouds are laced with the darkest lining

I know the sun shines the same
And that the Lord doesn't change
I know I'm not alone
For Christ is my companion

When floods fill the mountain paths
And earth is nowhere to be seen
When hope is naught that the rain will stop
And tears fall faster than a hundred raindrops

I know the sun shines the same
And that the Lord doesn't change
I know I'm not alone
For Christ is my companion

This storm too will pass
And the warmth and light
Of Your love will last
To end this cold, dark night

I know the sun shines the same
And that the Lord doesn't change
I know I'm not alone
For Christ is my companion
My Hope and my Salvation
