Doubt is the ceaseless wave
That batters against the soul.
It washes away the faith
That sprung up the day before.

It taunts the clouded ear
and haunts the visions I see.
Even when it is satisfied,
its mocking voice remains.

Remind me again why I believe
So I can once again be free
from the whispers in the night
and the ocean that lives in me.
