A Sorrow Unspent

[Verse 1]
To take arms against a troubled sea
Or swallow one's raging heart
The right path seems occluded always
A moral compass without a chart
To writhe in silence or share the lament
The choice of the afflicted

[Chorus]
A sorrow unspent
A sorrow unspent
A sorrow unspent until now

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, to contain such sorrow (Such sorrow)
The dam could burst tomorrow

[Verse 2]
Damned if you do and damned if you don't
All the same, a card must be played
Release the burden or carry the load
Then live with the choice you have made
To bite your tongue or raise your voicе in dissent
The curse of compunction

[Chorus]
A sorrow unspеnt
A sorrow unspent
A sorrow unspent until now

[Bridge]
Silent rage behind the dam wall
(Building over countless years)
Stand back and wait for the fall
(A lifetime of unshed tears)
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 3]
So will you hold back or rise to the call?
Could fury have the final say?
If conscience, in the end, makes cowards of us all
Must we live to rue the day?
To seethe in bitterness or kill without relent
The torture of the damned

[Chorus]
A sorrow unspent
A sorrow unspent
A sorrow unspent until now

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, to contain such sorrow (Such sorrow)
The dam could burst tomorrow
