Track Insight / Lyrics
Rain slashes night's black veil
Thunder's hammerfall, the hollow sound
Cries in the storm that won't cease
Weathered hands, cracked and worn
Against the wood, I carve my hurt
Each groove a line through my soul
Bled out on this weathered heart
Deep in the gut, it still sears
Scars that won't heal, only sink
Into the bone, the marrow cold
Still aching, frozen in time
But here I stand, pins and nails
A nailed-down anchor in the storm's sails
Rooted in pain, raw and unshackled
Through the tempest, my anchor holds fast
Memories crash through the haze
Voices, laughter, love's misplaced grasp
All drowned out by the thunder's roar
Leaving only echoes wanting more
Deep in the gut, it still sears
Scars that won't heal, only sink
Into the bone, the marrow cold
Still aching, frozen in time
But here I stand, pins and nails
A nailed-down anchor in the storm's sails
Rooted in pain, raw and unshackled
Through the tempest, my anchor holds fast
Riffs tear through, a heavy torrent
Force awake the storm within
Through the anguish, face the pain
Slam it down, let it pour again
Shredded splinters of melody
Fractured, but still resonate
A shattered mirror's jagged light
Reflecting shards, a lonely fight
Rooted in pain, raw and unshackled
Through the tempest, my anchor holds fast
Pull me down, won't break me free
I am the anchor, the storm's ally
Cries in the storm that won't cease
Thunder's echo, the hollow sound
I remain in the downpour's grasp
Until the storm has its last rest
