White noise blares from the alarm clock on my nightstand
There is safety beneath the layers of blankets
That cover me and the hot coils beneath me
Out there
Beyond cottoned safety, is a world of temperatures too low to bear
The kind of cold that latches on and sinks its teeth deep into the melanin
Out there is a world that is isolated, with blood spills on floors and on pavement
Where hearts become holed as colors fade
And where this frame is caught in a lifeless cadence
Holding solely on occupation and faith because they're all that remain consistent
It's a world of depression and heartache and I'd much rather stay here
Safe
Protected by this fabric force field from the surrounding winter
These days have been a burden
These empty rooms howl, crack, and mock my lonely heart
And companionship has been limited to one
And the wounds they've produced make even that burdensome
And this cold Hell feels like it's only just begun
The truth of this matter, this pain, and its sums are
I'm afflicted
Sick of this cyclical situation
This vibrant hue has turned to countless broken faces
And as every crack progresses, so does the prison that it's making
And I still wonder if this caged bird can too–sing
Maybe I should let the noise play
Become a victim to these walls and freeze away
Close my eyes and pray
To find home in Zion this day
Emmanuel… Emmanuel
You will make it good
You will make it good
You looked into the chaos and spoke
Never ran from nor erased it
You faced it, head on
With hollowed palms
Slain as you began to reach into our wrongs
I know–you're in the business of redemption
So in the midst of this tension, I will trust
Because you make all things new
And if I can believe anything it's that you've woven me to you
And your newness–contagious
Your healing turns the pages
And works the words of broken chapters into stories for the ages
You never said that it would be painless
But you will make it–good
So I will rise
And take my cue from you
Reach into the chaos and build something new
Author a rising action in the falls that have ensued
And look to coming pages as you make these hells untrue
This room is still frigid and the heartache still reigns
But I can either drown in the rain or fight through this pain
So, to Hell with false comfort
Rebuild
Remain
