Enation : The Dark Room

I’m blank; no contrast, no colors, no schemes

Void it seems

Open the shudder, let the light come in

Something is being born, it just can’t be seen

Pull away, and call it an escape

Move away from the crowd

I’m in Your pocket now

Resting, this testing has brought me to You

Why did I resist this beautiful process?

So drown me, put me in and surround me

Shut the doors and lock ‘em if You need

This is between You and me

Soak me, break my will and choke me

Wrap me in chains if that’s what I need

Turn the lights off so I can see

I’m in the Dark room...

developing

I’m still, every dream every plan fades to red

My soul is fed

You kick me and shatter my heart

Humble me with grace, how I’ve missed this place

A flood of peace runs through my veins

Here only to serve is what I’ve learned

Resisting, this existing has bought me a choice

Why did I despair with You there?

So drown me, put me in and surround me

Shut the doors and lock ‘em if You need

This is between You and me

Soak me, break my will and choke me

Wrap me in chains if that’s what I need

Turn the lights off so I can see

I’m in the Dark room...

developing

I’m in shock, the contrast and colors You’ve wrought

Who would have thought?

I’m thrown, the image I see looks more like You

And a lot less like me

I’m alive, with time out of mind

Surrendered to the sound , I’m in Your rhythm now

Waiting, this invading love is free

I can trust You, can You trust me?

I’m in the Dark room...
