A candle lights my way back home Back through all the times and the places I have roamed The light that shines kills the shadows of the past The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last A change is coming, I promise It has taken a while to prepare for all this Well, I'm not afraid of what the future holds Cause it surely leads me out of my own cold A candle lights my way back home Back through all the times and the places I have roamed The light that shines kills the shadows of the past The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last I know it's hard to understand though I've made up my mind and it's time for me to go I thank you for the time we've had As you read these lines I'm already dead A candle lights my way back home Back through all the times and the places I have roamed The light that shines kills the shadows of the past The misfortunes I am leaving you are going to be the last
