Path of the Whirlwind - Redemption

Fear surrounds me

I struggle not to yield

Panic taking hold

Rising in my chest

Desperate, casting around

Searching for a foothold as I’m

Falling away, further each day

Slipping into the black

In the path of the whirlwind

No way back

No way home again

Pain engulfs me

I shut it off and focus but I’m

Helpless and left without an

Option I would choose

Disbelief -- I’d like to fill

Myself up with denial but I

Just have to face, I’m losing the race

Slipping into the black

In the path of the whirlwind

No way back

No way home again

All alone

When the walls come down

See the light

Die without a sound
