the calm after the storm

[instrument intro] the calm after the storm..... the calm after the storm..... [Verse 1] I sailed out strong, my head held high, a boat of pride beneath the sky. the seas were calm, the winds were fair, I thought I would conquer anywhere. [Chorus] but the storm came fierce, and the winds did cry. my boat of pride was torn awry, in the panic storm. I lost my way, my hearts were shattered, night and day. [Verse 2] the waves rose high, the lightning flashed. my dreams of glory, cruelly dashed. I clung to hope, but fear took hold, a tale of hubris, now retold. [Chorus] but the storm came fierce, and the winds did cry. My boat of pride was torn awry, in the panic storm. I lost my way, my hearts were shattered, night and day. [Bridge] Pride once a beacon, now it's gone. in the chaos, I sail on. lessons learned, I now must steer, through the wreckage of my fear. [piano solo] [Chorus] but the storm came fierce, and the winds did cry. My boat of pride was torn awry, in the panic storm. I lost my way, my hearts were shattered, night and day. [Outro] Now humbled by the tempest's might, I seek the calm of mind, after the chaos. from the wreckage of pride, I'll rise anew, with lessons learned and the skies of new. through the wreckage of my fear. [piano solo] [Chorus] but the storm came fierce, and the winds did cry. My boat of pride was torn awry, in the panic storm. I lost my way, my hearts were shattered, night and day. [Outro] Now humbled by the tempest's might, I seek the calm of mind, after the chaos. from the wreckage of pride, I'll rise anew, with lessons learned and the skies of new.
