A Thousand Tears
SONG BY Siling-La

Nothing's going right
I tried but I lost the fight
Don't know where to go from here
Everything shattered like a mirror

I look but I can't see the light
And there's not an anchor in sight
I've become what I've always feared
And I doubt I can be cured

I shake my fists at the one who created me
Tired, hurt, and angry


But you reach out your hand to me
While I'm bawling in my grief
You wipe my eyes so I can see
And you comfort me gently
Even if I run
Whenever I hide
You brush away my sorrows
A thousand tears at a time


I try to listen to what you say
But it seems to drift away
I can't control what happens to me
I can't calm the sea

I feel hopeless and helpless
Even through your faithfulness
And the pain that once controlled me
Comes back so easily

I shake my fists at the one who created me
Tired, hurt, and angry


But you reach out your hand to me
While I'm bawling in my grief
You wipe my eyes so I can see
And you comfort me gently
Even if I run
Wherever I hide
You brush away my sorrows
A thousand tears at a time

Heaven seems so far away
With every single passing day
I search for something to hold on to
But now I know it's only you

So when you reach out your hand to me
I, for once, forget my grief
And with you I can finally see
How you're working all around me
So every time I run
Whenever I try to hide
You carry me to tomorrow
In the arms of a healer
And you brush away my sorrows

A thousand tears at a time
