TITLE: I Will Stand Fast
Lyrics and Chords
The echoes of childhood whisper violence
Cold wind beating out of the past
Rage in your throat, muffled silence
Hold on, I will stand fast
/ D A D - / G Bm A - / GA DG Bm - / G A D - /
In the darkness your guardians had left you / Cold wind...
None to hear your cries, none to defend you / Hold on...
{Refrain}
I will stand fast, I will stand fast
You are safe in the daylight at last
Nightmare and fear, they have no power here
I will stand fast
/ G A D - / G D A - / G A D Em / G A D - /
I will listen to the terrors that tried you / ...
I will cradle the child that breathes inside you / ...
Though you take the shape of a hundred ancient horrors / ...
Though you strike at me and flee into your sorrow / ...
{Refrain}
Birds flash upon a branch in winter / ...
Ice in the sun begins to splinter / ...
You will walk with no fetters to bind you / ...
All the love you have wanted will find you / ...
{Refrain}
I will stand fast
/ Em A D - /
