Guiding Lights: A Journey Through Shadows and StrengthLyrics
I had a way then losing it all on my own
I used to have a method but lost everything on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
I once had a heart, but now it's been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
I struggle to sleep now because the darkness is overwhelming
And I'm not keeping up the strength I need to push me
I'm lacking the strength to keep going and need something to motivate me
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You exhibit lights that immobilize me and make me feel numb
You shine them when I'm alone
You illuminate these lights when I'm by myself
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
I convince myself to be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
I daydream when those lights are gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
External forces are calling me back home
Calling, calling, calling home
Repeated: External forces are calling me back home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Repeated: You exhibit lights that immobilize me and make me feel numb
You shine them when I'm alone
Repeated: You illuminate these lights when I'm by myself
Noises, I play within my head
I hear noises in my mind
Touch my own skin and hope they'll still be there
I touch my own skin, hoping for a connection
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
I reminisce about when my brother and sister provided a sense of security
In another place the only time I feel safe
Feeling safe only in another place
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Repeated: You exhibit lights that immobilize me and make me feel numb
You shine them when I'm alone
Repeated: You illuminate these lights when I'm by myself
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
I convince myself to be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
I daydream when those lights are gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Repeated: External forces are calling me back home
Calling, calling, calling home
-You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Repeated: You exhibit lights that immobilize me and make me feel numb
You shine them when I'm alone
Repeated: You illuminate these lights when I'm by myself
