Verse 1:
There's a light in my darkness,
no one sees but me.
It's my greatest comfort,
but it will never set me free.
It taps me on the shoulder,
and whispers in my ear.
It tells me it's alright,
then brings me right back here.
If I could wish for one thing,
it would be to say goodbye.
But I need the light to bathe me
just one more precious time.
Chorus:
I peer deep into the shadows
looking for the ray
of the one thing I'm forbidden;
any other way.
Verse 2:
I feel like running towards it,
It draws me ever near.
It offers only comfort,
and then it disappears.
There’s no one I can go to;
No place that I can hide.
It teases like a savior,
and is killing me inside.
If I could wish for one thing,
it would be to say goodbye.
But I need the light to bathe me
just one more precious time.
Chorus:
I peer deep into the shadows
looking for the ray
of the one thing I'm forbidden;
any other way.
I peer deep into the shadows
looking for the ray
of the one thing I'm forbidden;
any other way.
The one thing I'm forbidden; any other way.
Any other way.
Any other way.
A note from the lyricist
This reflects emotions I've had for a long time. I just tried to feel them on paper. Simple as that.
