Tears of the Dragon

For too long now, there were secrets in my mind.
For too long now, there were things I should have said.
In the darkness, I was stumbling for the door.
To find a reason, to find the time, the place, the hour.

Waiting for the winter sun, and the cold light of day.
The misty ghosts of childhood fears...
The pressure is building, and I can't stay away.

I throw myself, into the sea. 
Release the wave, let it wash over me. 
To face the fear, I once believed.
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me.

Where I was, I had wings that couldn't fly.
Where I was, I had tears I couldn't cry.
My emotions, frozen in an icy lake.
I couldn't feel them, until the ice began to break.

I have no power over this, you know I'm afraid.
The walls I built are crumbling.
The water is moving.
I'm slipping away.

I throw myself, into the sea.
Release the wave, let it wash over me.
To face the fear I once believed.
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me.

Slowly I awake.
Slowly I rise.
The walls I built are crumbling,
The water is moving,
I'm slipping away.

I throw myself, into the sea.
Release the wave, let it wash over me.
To face the fear, I once believed.
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me.
