lyrics

when I was out on the run
from a world that hated me
I was full of all my scars
and my blood ran empty

then my eyes couldn’t see
what my heart now perceives
that all my deeds (good and bad)
have been rendered obsolete
lights that shined out of my reach
they almost buried me
flickering reflections
of the things I longed to see
then my eyes couldn’t see
what my heart now perceives
that all my deeds (good and bad)
have been rendered obsolete
the light, the light’s alive
the light, it’s alive, alive
the light, the light’s alive in me
now my tension is
light wrapped in a flesh that seeks it’s end
but let this candle burn
until from ashes flames ascend
then my eyes will finally see
what my heart now perceives
and all my deeds (good and bad)
have been rendered obsolete
