Seeking answers in desperate times
Light lift me
Shift me from these hectic thoughts
Lead me swiftly from this pale dark bog
Lift these logs from my back
Lend me some slack
Cease the attack
And give my spirit rest
Give me air and room to breathe
Vent these feelings from my chest
Show me a mirror
So I can see my best
Let this be a simple test
So I can catch my breath
And stand my ground
While stagnant air pins me down

Give me light
So I can fight
Give me a sign
So I know my path is right
Bestow your might
Vanquish these shadows of the night
Remind me of what I've seen
Help me remember my dreams
Give sound to my voiceless screams
Break these seams
That hold control of my beliefs
Express the truth
So I know the reason of deceit
Point me to my pieces
So I can be complete
Lend me wings to lift me
Beyond those who live to compete
Give me a chance
To fully breathe, to really see
To live today
Until Eternity

Extinguish the fires burning me
To give space for my flame
So I can burn unique
And make my name
To find the answers I seek
I pray...
Light help me find my way
Show me how to leave my rage
As a part of yesterday
Lead me off this beaten track
Back on course so I can stay
Help me sway from the ruts I'm in
Give me power and will
I'm sinking
Give me your hand
Let me steal a look
At your master plan
Equip me with armor and a sword
Tell me you're with me
So I have the confidence
To defeat these evil hordes
Light by my side
Give me the strength
To fight for something more
