Your eyes search for me
for so long i've wanted to come home
held back by lies of serpents
and tongues of brothers turning a child into an enemy
turning open arms into closed fists
i could see the reflection in the tears that made their way down
Your face onto the ground i kneel upon
they form a river that overtakes me
compassion envelops me
i forgive and release forgive release forgiven released

    absolutely right on. "Turning a child into an enemy, raised arms into closed fists"

    We become broken by life, weary and hardened, but there's a way home. Beautiful song
