cameron payne - blood red rose lyrics
[spoken: ray hughes]
the wind moved gently through the doors
it was like a secret that had never been told
the day felt like an answered prayer
as i reached and touched a blood+red rose
i can never see a rose now and not remember
that there were th+rns on the cross on a hill
to me, it’s not an old religious symbol
it’s where time and place crossed
and the world stood still
i walked through a valley full of questions
i pickеd up the ones i was afraid to ask
as clouds moved likе lemon mysteries in the distance
waves groaned and crashed
i reached the sea that had called me
and now i stand and wonder at every sight
where sound is bolder and deeper
and darkness fights and yields
to purest light
for a moment i could hear and see tomorrow
where lightning danced and thunder called
the sky held the black rain and wrestled time
while an old [pain/pane?] waited for the fury to fall
i stood on the shore where dimmed promises
disappeared behind [?] and [?] clouds
the lightning came sneaking around me, and
cared not for yesterday’s curses or vows
it was hard to know if the greater storm
was in the rising sea or the falling sky
for when h+ll breaks in and takes a storm
it intends no mercy, for it has no eye
dreams are dashed against unshakeable rock
as storm and storm refuse to relent
every hope is slammed one by one
as fear steals the time that it takes to repent
i hide my eyes and lose sight of the petals
i pray this blows over and reveals a morning star
my back to the wind and my face to my knees
“god, are you here?
let me know if you are
if this storm is you, god, i+i need to know if you’re in it
if this storm is me, calm me now, i pray
before the next gust of fear finds me weakened
and i fall to the next h+llish wave”
today the wind moves through the course again
but now the secrets have all been told
the day feels like an answered prayer
as i have found and touched the blood+red rose
