Rooms of Anguish

Take my hand; I'll guide the way
I'll guide the way
Step by step, and side by side
We walk together, we walk together...
Don't be afraid.

Slowly I push open the door
A beautiful blue sky
An ocean so calm
The brightest sun I've ever seen
My vision abstracted by the water's reflection.

Then suddenly a man appears
Along the horizon.

Then a voice said, "With all your fears and
Questions set aside"
Then a voice said, "I cry these tears so you won't have to hide
No matter where you are, I'm always here for you."

Then I noticed the man walking on water
His face so pure, his eyes so deep
With a smile, he reached out his hand to me
Apprehensive, I put my hand to him
Such gentle hands, my blood pressure dropped
Then I found myself standing on water.

Welcome, now you're in my Rooms of Anguish
It feels like make believe
That I can't ever find it
The peace I've sought for years.

Has it happened to you, or is it just me
Sometimes it tears me apart
It brings me to my knees; it brings me to my knees.

Don't be afraid, I am always here
I will never leave your side
Take my hand you will never die
Believe me...

In all my dreams, I never thought that
I would ever question celestial mind
But now that's where I stand
Decipher my words, and take from them what you will.

Welcome, now you're in my Rooms of Anguish
It feels like make believe
That I can't ever find it
The peace I've sought for years.

Has it happened to you, or is it just me
Sometimes it tears me apart
It brings me to my knees; it brings me to my knees.

Friends, some say, I understand...
(So why do you do this)
I'm the only one who knows
So why does it even matter to you
Is this one the only one?
From which the pain has started.

We will find the truth together
Feel deep, inside your soul
Feel deep, inside me...find.

Now as we all understand
The reasons behind all the fears we hide
Tell me, tell me they say...
It's just so hard; it's just so hard
It's just so damn hard....

Then a voice said, "With all your fears and
Questions set aside."
Then a voice said, "I cry these tears so you don't have to hide
No matter where you are
I'm always here for you"
Across the sea, and on all land.

Just follow your heart
And be the man that you'll be
And let no one tell you differently
With all my heart I trust faithfully.

Welcome, now you're in my Rooms of Anguish
It feels like make believe
That I can't ever find it
This peace I've sought for years.

Has it happened to you, or is it just me
Sometimes it tears me apart
It brings me to my knees; it brings me to my knees.
