Have you felt a void numbing your soul And lit a candle just to watch it burn? The flame dances but outside of this stage Shadows creep Every day I fight to stay in the light I endure the darkness 'Cause it shows me the stars And I vow to keep on spreading the light 'Til the day I die When I find myself in doubt I look within And watch my virtues tame their own reverse They're in balance but it's up to me To tip the scale Every day I fight to stay in the light I endure the darkness 'Cause it shows me the stars And I vow to keep on spreading the light 'Til the day I die Every day I fight to stay in the light I endure the darkness 'Cause it shows me the stars Like a mirror I'm reflecting the light To the world around Being the hero is a choice I believe it with all that I am A spotless heart's not a gift But a conquest that's worth striving for (Candid heart bathed in light Spotless heart choosing light Faithful heart praising light Lavish heart spreading light Candid heart bathed in light Spotless heart choosing light Spreading light) Every day I fight to stay in the light I endure the darkness 'Cause it shows me the stars And I vow to keep on spreading the light 'Til the day I die Every day I fight to stay in the light I endure the darkness 'Cause it shows me the stars Like a mirror I'm reflecting the light To the world around Every day I find my path And I fight to stay in the light
