I Will Stand Fast

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The echoes of childhood whisper violence Cold wind beating out of the past Rage in your throat, muffled silence Hold on, I will stand fast [Verse 2] In the darkness your guardians had left you Cold wind beating out of the past None to hear your cries, none to defend you Hold on, I will stand fast [Chorus] I will stand fast, I will stand fast You are safe in the daylight at last Nightmare and fear, they have no power here I will stand fast [Verse 3] I will listen to the terrors that tried you Cold wind beating out of the past I will cradle the child that breathes inside you Hold on, I will stand fast [Verse 4] Though you take the shape of a hundred ancient horrors Cold wind beating out of the past Though you strike at me and flee into your sorrow Hold on, I will stand fast [Chorus] I will stand fast, I will stand fast You are safe in the daylight at last Nightmare and fear, they have no power here I will stand fast [Verse 5] Birds flash upon a branch in winter Cold wind beating out of the past Ice in the sun begins to splinter Hold on, I will stand fast [Verse 6] You will walk with no fetters to bind you Cold wind beating out of the past All the love you have wanted will find you Hold on, I will stand fast [Chorus] I will stand fast, I will stand fast You are safe in the daylight at last Nightmare and fear, they have no power here I will stand fast I will stand fast
