| Long before the colors start to bleed
|
| I can see the painting come alive
|
| Clever like an angel in disguise
|
| Moving in and out of reach
|
| If the candle lights this crooked path
|
| Like a lighthouse peering through the haze
|
| I will find the river through the rain
|
| And I’ll reach the water’s edge
|
| Shed your light on me (shed your light on me)
|
| Be my eyes when I can’t see
|
| Shed your light on me (shed your light on me)
|
| Be my guide so I can see
|
| The bigger picture
|
| Like a moth burned by the fire
|
| And driven to the flame
|
| (Prophecies' a blessing and a curse)
|
| I must bare this cross alone
|
| There’s no one else to blame
|
| With each treasure found
|
| Another shipwreck’s washed ashore
|
| I am carried by the current
|
| On a slow and steady course
|
| Shed your light on me (shed your light on me)
|
| Be my eyes when I can’t see
|
| Shed your light on me (shed your light on me)
|
| Be my guide so I can see
|
| The bigger picture
|
| What if caught in a moment
|
| I get lost and can’t find my way
|
| What if all along I was wrong
|
| In every turn, in every way
|
| Would you talk me off the ledge
|
| Or let me take the fall
|
| Better to try and fail
|
| Then to never try at all
|
| You look but cannot see
|
| Talk but never speak
|
| You live but cannot breathe
|
| See but don’t believe
|
| Wounds that never heal
|
| A heart that cannot feel
|
| A dream that’s all too real
|
| A stare as cold as steel
|
| I’ve listened to the stories of resentment and disdain
|
| I’ve looked into the empty eyes of anger, fear, and shame
|
| I’ve taken blood from every stone
|
| And traveled every road
|
| When I see the distant lights illuminate the night
|
| Then I will know I am home |
