Deceived by my eyes and all I was told I should see

Opinions not mine, the person they taught me to be

One night in the dark, a vision of someone I knew

And in the darkness I saw, a voice say, I'm you.

Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive


If you close your eyes your life, a naked truth revealed

Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed

In the darkness, light will take you to the other side

and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes


Hearts uninspired, trapped inside somebody's dream

Too close to the fire, yet cold and numb with the pain

But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea

Washed to the ocean, and saved by a voice inside me.

Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive


If you close your eyes your life, a naked truth revealed

Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed

In the darkness, light will take you to the other side

and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes


Never thought I would be here, so high in the air

This was my unanswered prayer

Defined by another, so much wasted time

Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine


If you close your eyes your life, a naked truth revealed

Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed

In the darkness, light will take you to the other side

and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes
