My Rosary - Phinehas

Is there a power without or within

Hope isn’t grown, hope is awakened

The threat of law can’t outweigh conviction

Hope isn’t grown, hope is awakened

Where are you now?

Are you present or an accident;

my rosary

Where are you now?

Will my faith meet sight or bayonet?

My rosary

My first free choice was lying to the state

Given context to what lies past the gate

The fog surrounding my camp began to disperse

We took our chance for the fence but I wasn’t first

I’ve found that running away isn’t the same as being free

I’m paralyzed in my sleep

Running away isn’t the same as being free

You were my compass;

my rosary

(Hope is awakened)

Hope isn’t grown;

hope is awakened

Hope isn’t grown;

hope is awakened

I slipped on ice and watched your hands reach out

Shaking as coils sent current throughout

Grounding the burnt of what should have been my fate

Opening the wires sending fire through your veins

Like a bridge, I crawled over you to outside

My first breath of freedom was your last breath of life

I’ve found that running away isn’t the same as being free

I’m paralyzed in my sleep

Running away isn’t the same as being free

You were my compass;

my rosary

Is there a power without or within

Hope isn’t grown, hope is awakened

The threat of law can outweigh conviction

Hope isn’t grown, hope is awakened

Where are you now?

(Hope isn’t grown)

Are you present?

(Hope is awakened)

Where are you now?

(Hope isn’t grown)

Are you an accident?

(Hope is awakened)
