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 [bad word] 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 so numb with the pain
But the fever has broken, and the river [bad word] 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 

Never thought I would be here, so high in the air 
This is my unanswered prayer 
Defined by another, so much wasted time 
Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine
