Understand What I've Grown to Be

And so it begins,
We rush into this dawn,
Shields and swords break the silence,
We each fight for what seems right,
We fight for one another,

How long since I've seen home?
What am I fighting for?
What am I living for?
Why is my cup empty?
Have I lost all I am?

The fires burn this night,
but I cannot see the light,
I have become empty,
But the love of all others,
They have made me new,

I have died but made real,
As I look into the sky,
I feel endless compassion and love,
And I share this with everyone,
Who dares to gaze upon the heavens,

Tonight I know,
I know what I've grown to become,
I know this is why I am alive,
I know we are one,
I know I'm alive,
I'm alive...
