Heal My Soul

I can't not start with the Greatest Band Ever - Savatage. I guess we're all looking for a little healing from time to time and this one from Streets pretty much says it all.

I've been waiting, long forgotten
Shipwrecked on a distant shore
Am I drifting, no more wanted
Floating outward evermore

All the dreams that I have harbored
In the labyrinth of my soul
Gone forever
Not discarded
Only sleeping
Till they're whole

In the graveyard of my heart now
Sleep the years that I've long sold
For their markers is there nothing
Only ghost I cannot hold

And Father hear me
I am tired
Shall I waken
In thy home

And hold me closer
I am trying
Sweet Lord Jesus
Heal my soul


Right now I am feeling tired... too drawn out. Far too many things come to an end. In a way very much shipwrecked, marooned somewhere foreign and I don't know where. I guess this song best describes this. A wary plead for break, for a change, for new hope.
