Faith and Fractures

Verse] She prays in the quiet dark her hands clasped tight Eyes searching the heavens for some holy light I stand in the doorway shadowed and lost My faithless heart burdened heavy with cost [Verse 2] She whispers to the boy tales of grace and fire Her voice like a hymn rising ever higher I watch from afar drowning in my doubt The love in her eyes burns the demons out [Chorus] She’s a beacon I’m a broken man She holds my hand though I can’t understand Our son’s laughter fills the empty halls Her faith lifts us as my spirit falls [Verse 3] She sings to the stars when the night grows cold A melody ancient her soul so bold I’m silent beside her my words all gone In her faith she’s strong but I’m barely holding on [Bridge] I see her light I feel her grace It’s etched in every line of her face Her belief’s a fire that warms our home While I walk this road feeling so alone [Chorus] She’s a beacon I’m a broken man She holds my hand though I can’t understand Our son’s laughter fills the empty halls Her faith lifts us as my spirit falls
