Standing in the darkness,
Pool of blood around my feet,
Slowly rising, getting deeper,
I'm drowning all around and alone,
Suddenly I see a ray of light,
Beaming down to make me feel so warm,
The blood surrounding me starts to dry,
And I feel goodness in my heart,
How do I remove the remaining darkness?
For if I don't my ray of light will fade,
I can already sense that things are going dim,
But what can I say when I've put out my own lights,
Standing here with one ray of light,
It's been sufficient to give me comfort,
I just need to make sure that my light sees the light,
That I have for all that's inside of me.
