Whispers Lyrics

In my heart there's a little room of stone

Holds the anger & the rage, all the pride that leads to pain

I keep it under lock & key, but it gets out much too easily

It's hard to hold it back, it likes to leap out & attack

Confront for survival, I have to have my say

Need a pathway to revival, need to find a better way

It's in the words that she whispers

Sometimes I'm frightened by the way they make me feel

I let the fire breathe – gave no retreat – I'm too extreme

I had to win the battle each time

In the battle zone, I fought with all I got

I leaned in much too close, and I always came in hot

In my mind there were no limits, the fight, I felt I had to win

A victory at great cost, a lifetime love I almost lost

But you still stand beside me to remind me who I am

I feel the full power of your love, and now I understand

It's in the words that she whispers

They echo through dark canyons across my mind

You tried to make me see – sense the urgency – stop the prophecy

Can't sweep away the ashes this time

Oh, I never was clear how important you are to me – I never was clear

It's in the words that she whispers

Hear her singing softly through the light in her eyes

It's in the air we breathe, the shared dreams & philosophies

That bind us to each other through all time

It's in the words that she whispers

And I see them now in all the warnings and the signs

When I let the fire burn – with no concern – there's no return

Painful reminders past their time

It's in the words that she whispers

If I listen closely their echoes sparkle through my art

You let the dreamer dream – the poet scheme

You lifted me above the fires that rage in my heart
