Original Song: Where You Are
This is a song I wrote for a friend's team game project at DigiPen. The game centers on things lost a found by a differently-abled folk hero in a post-apocalyptic world. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out during the 2016-2017 school year.

WHERE YOU ARE
Where is my home to be?
A fire in the distance calls to me
Whether you be near or far
I will find myself where you are
You look at me and I feel brave
Like I'm not so far gone and there's plenty to save
Ash clouds the sky, but I swear I can see
A great winding path guiding you back to me
Where is my home to be?
A fire in the distance calls to me
Whether you be near or far
I will find myself where you are
Missteps you took made you stumble from grace
Your faith hasn't gone; it's only misplaced
You are a diamond - cut free from the stone -
Together we're flawed; you're no longer alone
Where is my home to be?
A fire in the distance calls to me
Whether you be near or far
I will find myself where you are
Dry your eyes, little dreamer, the night's nearly done
Wake with the dawn; help me signal the sun
Here in the quiet, recall all you know
From nothing comes nothing - give love room to grow
