lyrics

Once I saw The Light
And they told me
To stay in the dark

Then I freeze all night
In shameless truths
Trapped in my mind

Then I saw The Light
And they told me
To find a voice

Now I saw The Light

Darkness it goes everything around me
Signs of failure all surround me
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here
It's hard as hell trying to confront your fears

And still stay afloat with your peers
Cause you gotta make it somehow by the end of the year
The pressure makes my head want to burst
My life is a curse
There's only few by hurt

Is it real? Or is it my imagination?
Do I have my keys to my own emancipation?
Trying to summon up the strength to complete the mission
Trying to make it worthwhile because there are people listening

Sometimes losing your vision is the best lesson
The true path might be seen in a different spectrum
I give up my sight for The Light
The universe as my guide 'til I die

I saw The Light
And they told me
To stay in the dark

Now I freeze all night
In shameless truths
Trapped in my mind

Then I saw The Light
And they told me
To find a voice

Now I saw The Light

Their blend of soundscapes and lyrical exuberance creates a grand adventure in listening, one that can hold the attention of music fans from across a fairly wide spectrum ... more
