Testo di 'Shasta's Complaint' di Sarah Sparks

Waves that beat upon the shore, they brought no peace
Somewhere else I must belong, somewhere for me
Who was it left me there, a boy scared and alone?
No, I don’t think you heard me calling, always thought, He must not know
Surely He would never leave me, wouldn’t leave me here alone

You tell me now that I was never on my own?
Well pardon me, I don’t remember you at all
Cause with my back against the tomb, I called you out
But I don’t think I heard your answer, I don’t think I heard a sound
I don’t recall you in my anger or remember you around

But He answered: Who are you to question me?
Do you command the mountains or calm the raging sea?
For I am the current, there to save your life
A man may find his eye deceiving, a fool holds on to trust his sight
A wise man knows that his own feeling may not with the truth align

And you think that you have never seen my face?
But every moment you’re alive, you know my grace
For only death in this whole world is justly deserved
And you say that I never answer, just because you have not heard
But you don’t know yet how to listen or to understand my words

My love, I cared for you
I was the comfort you felt in the house of the dead
I drove from you
Beasts in the night, all of this I have done while you slept
All by my design
Every chapter and word I’ve written every line
All by my design
Every chapter and word I’ve written every line
