I heard a thousand voices
all cry out in pain
and though I couldn't understand them,
they all sounded just the same.
I know you won't hear it the first time
which is why I will say it again,
and I'll keep saying it if I have to,
if it will make its way into your brain.
I am the boat that you ride on
as you float through the vast endless sea.
I am the home you come back to
when you are ready to listen to me.
When you have buried your gorgon
and when I have buried my prince
I'll be patient and kind to my children
so they can know it's ok that they sin.
