Faith
Shining, in the twilight
Thinking about the light
Burning, somewhere, far away
We were all born without wings
Yet, we still try to fly...
We were born with our eyes closed
And we still refuse to see...
Down in this darkness
With the diamonds above, in the sky
Living just to live
Dying just to die
And loving just to feel something
Anything...
Sweet, sweet lies
Losing all control
Blocking out this darkness
So, that I can pray for light
Reaching for him, through this distance
Seeking him through these shadows...
Crying out loud, hoping that he'll hear me
Throwing away these things of the past
Hoping to find this future that I seek
And the life that I burn for
Off, in the distance, somewhere it lies
It is out of my line of vision
I cannot see it, but I know it's there
I'm just going on faith...
