This Wake I Myself Have Stirred Lyrics - Hearts Once Nourished With Hope And Compassion - Shai Hulud

Afraid to turn. 

But I did and met no maker at all. 

Only instead, reflections of a rippled self. 

I may at last see myself as good 

In a neutral pond unbiased and real 

Depicting only what is true. 

A distortion my hand has forced. 

I have created the wake. 

I may at last see myself as good. 

Paint a false scenario. 

My life has been a breach of contract and faith. 

I kid myself. 

Moving through self degradation. 

I turn to you for appreciation. 

So help me to help myself. 

So help me to love myself.
