They are monsters in the making
And I wonder if they’re faking 
The lines they draw in the sand
Because someone somewhere takes a hand 
And promises someone love
But the same palm becomes a boxing glove
As it curls into a fist
And I missed the memo to the place where I exist
As something other than old defeat
I washed my hair at his feet
And he just sighed his heart
And I could hear him fall apart
In my peace
And I know what he wants to cease
But the trouble can’t sustain 
Itself in this rain
And if I had to I would do it again
Just to catch the tear from his eye
My love, there’s a Love that will never die 
And I move out of the place obscure
I know it’s pure
And precious and bold
But you have a heart of gold 
Hidden beneath the fray
My dear, are you okay
Under that weight
I want you to know that the hate
Isn’t all it seems to be
Trust in Him and trust in me
