Serenity, My Sanity

Ah serenity

In you, I find peace,

A peace I always wanted

By the clouds, I rest my head

By the stars, I claim my rest

Look how my veins sleep

They haven’t done so in a thousand years.

Like the sun, I wish to shine

A light that never fades,

My soul found rest in you

Serenity, ah serenity

Listen to the music I bring

My heart comes to rest.

Like a hiding place

You made this heart safe,

Like a shield to my heart

You protected my soul

A calm voice speaks to me

It tells me “fear not.

Worry no more

Calm your heart, dearest soul

Lest dark clouds drown you.

I come to be cleansed

This darkness I’ve found me in,

Look to the hills, let no darkness through

My thoughts, I’ve handed over

My sanity, I’ve brought to you

Listen to these words

The world I live in

Is now a Dreamland

A Dreamland I would rather not have

Free these hands, lest I sink slowly.

In the crowd, I lost my way

Your hands broke that cycle,

Amidst the noise

You silenced those threats

All I can say is I’m grateful

Grateful to find solace in you.
