From A Friend

Shatter my heart among the stars

I've cried so many tears what does it matter if a few more fall?

Does it work to stand in the gap where I stood?

Hold me close in your arms, I need to know you are good

Why did you give me a heart if it can be broken like this?

Can this be your will? Could this be what you wished?

He's hurting so much, the pain goes so deep

He's broken and dying, will you just let him bleed?

This world is so dark, will your light be enough?

Can roses really grow out of ashes so tough?

I have to trust you, there is no other rope

Don't let me fall....you're my only hope

Take control, work your hand, however that may be

I'll still cling to you....and I pray so will He
