Into the Light

Please just save me from this darkness
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
It's the wrong kind of place
It's the wrong time
But my faith is pulling me through
It's a small crime to blame
And I've got no excuse.
 
I just want to be not what I am today
I just want to be better than my friends might say
Maybe I should pack my things and move on
Maybe I'm fooling myself and the time has gone
Watching the flames wither and fade
Trying to make sense out of vanishing shade
 
The sky is lit up today
Day will be richer than night
So not thinking of yesterday
Dreaming big and real like a knight.
I think I must confess, I'm learning to unwind
I've been tripping over and over my mind
So tell me something new, let’s start afresh
Take it or leave it – shouts the world in blood and flesh
 
I am stuck in this moment; freeze the hands of time
Because I feel inner peace when I'm out of my mind
And you can call me crazy, but I like to roll the dice
I have to bell the cat, unlike the other lucky mice.
 
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing
 
 
 
Do you know that there's still a chance for me
'Cause there's a spark in me
I just have to ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
 
I don't have to feel like a waste of space
I am original, cannot be replaced
If only I knew what the future holds
I would make a rainbow from the thunderbolts.
 
Maybe there is a reason why all the doors are closed
So I can open one that leads me to the perfect road
Like a lightning sprung, my heart will glow
And when it's time, all will know
And when it's time, all will know.
