A couple more days have passed and Marshall appears to be doing well with his Therapy. Right now though, he is in the process of drawing. "Hmmm maybe? No that would be stupid. Uhm, how about? Nah, too silly and would ruin the drawing. Grrr, why must drawing be so hard?" Marshall says as he is racking his brain to figure out how to continue his drawing. He tries drawing some lines, but ends up erasing them cause he doesn't feel that they fit or that they look horrible.

He continues like this for another 10 minutes. "Ahhhh...I just don't know what to draw... Everything I try and do doesn't look good. Or at least I don't think they will be good," Marshall says out loud before he sighs. "Maybe I should take a break? Would that help me any? Hmm, I guess it can't hurt. Been going like this for about an hour so I think it would be best. Besides, not like my paper is gonna go anywhere," The Dally says out loud to himself as he hops off the bed in the room he is in and decided to throw on some music.

The Dally grabs the tablet he was offered to use and scrolls through the apps until he finds Spotify. Once he finds it, he opens it and once again scrolls til' he finds an artist he wants to listen to. "Ah yes, Judas Priest. They have some inspirational songs. Maybe they have a song that can help me," Marshall says as he looks through their albums of songs. He sees that there is a new song from them and becomes curious. "Hmm, a new song I see. I've listened to the other two songs they've released in support of their new album. Best thing to do is to listen to this one too," the Dally says as he clicks play on the song. Instantly he is thrilled with it and smiles, wagging his tail in excitement.

"I learned the hard way
That what you dream for
Comes from the pain you hold inside
I'm on a long road
There is no answer
You have to hold the love you find
I'd wait so helpless
But love was waiting
Just like an angel in the dark

Heavy is the crown of horns that rests upon this head
Heavy is the crown of horns from all the blood he shed

The days seemed endless
No sense of calling
Until the daylight came to be
I thought of rapture
To end this capture
Then something grew inside of me
I found my way now
And I am soaring
Almost touching every star

Heavy is the crown of horns that rests upon this head
Heavy is the crown of horns from all the blood he shed
Heavy is the crown of horns that kept the faith so bright
Heavy is the crown of horns that gave me all this life

I'll call out to the world tonight
To raise your horns up high
I'm calling to the world tonight
To let your voices fly
I'll call out to the world tonight
Give thanks for we are saved
I'm calling to the world tonight
To never be afraid

The end of longing
A place to rest now
I found the answer to my prayer
I'm on my way now
And I am soaring
I'm almost touching every star

Heavy is the crown of horns that rests upon this head
Heavy is the crown of horns from all the blood he shed
Heavy is the crown of horns that kept the faith so bright
Heavy is the crown of horns that gave me all this life
