Ravine

Ravine
Have you heard, have you heard,
About this girl who was ripped up
By her roots
Have you heard, what she learned?
Like humility, you win when you lose
I have learned, I have learned
The most horrifying nights have an end
I was hurt, I was lost.

In the dark I found a way to a friend
I am standing here in my ravine.
Once again I see a piece of the sky
And my joy'll never be denied
'Cause I was meant to be here,
The only place on earth
Where you are near, where you are near
Was a flower, so frail,
And I let the trees grow wild around me.
Grew so high, hid the sky,
Shaded everything I needed to see
Then one night, someone came
Took a knife an ripped me up by my roots
Tossed astray, far away.
In my darkest night I started to pray
I am standing
Why do you, why do you ask
Why I'm not blaming my god?
I'll tell you, I'll tell you what,
He was the only one there
I am standing
