I saw a light Deep at night Down by the riverside In search for answers I fought against the tide I lost myself Down by the riverside All hope was gone Until I felt that I wasn't alone! I feel alive I called darkness my home Shadows my friends Fear was my closest companion I saw the white in the eyes of demons Within the deepest tracts of my soul! Disconnected from the roots of the universe Deaf to the pulse of the earth Hope was a dream for the living And death a dream of my own! Now I see the light Down by the riverside It feels familiar, yet unknown to the eye It speaks to me, wordless yet so clear It speaks through me And saves me from my fear! I am alive!
