A thank you to friends who've stood by me through thick and thin
I am evil, I am the devil
I am love, I am a saint
For years wandering lost
Spinning in circles
Teetering on the brink
Losing control

Dark clouds closing in
Rain falling in my heart
Shivering in the cold
Enclosed in a self-made cocoon

A chink of light, the clouds begin to clear
Sign posts appear, guiding me forward
Reminisence, experiences from the past
Picking me up, showing me hope,in the present, the future
Voices calling, carrying me home
Giving me strength, allowing me to grow
Providing wings and teaching me to fly

I think, I believe I'm on the mend
Escaping my prison, feeling my way out of this maze

You were there for me
Still here now
Old bonds reviving
Reminding me of times we've left behind
Of joys and happiness
tears and laughter
Have I changed?
Its down to me
Am I saved?
Its thanks to you

Vows spoken in a broken marriage
Given but not received
Have existed for years
Unspoken, but communicated
Unmentioned, but understood
Through richer and poorer
In sickness and in health
Till death us do part

I thankyou from the heart, the soul in the only way I know how
True friendship
Long may we reign
