How could this be
That out of the darkness a light has been cast upon me
What would i do
If my own irreverence forever kept me from the truth
I've watched the aging face in the reflection stare at me
Watching hour by hour he affords no sympathy
I've tried to dim the lights to avoid accusing stares
But he always finds my eyes and reminds me who i am
I've felt the hand of mercy
Reaching down for me
To pull me from the trenches
To calm the stormy seas
To wash me in the waters
To cleanse me in the blood
To start my new becoming
And vanquish what i was
How could this be
That out of the darkness a light has been cast upon me
What would i do
If my own irreverence forever kept me from the truth
That out of the darkness a light has been cast upon me
What would i do
If my own irreverence forever kept me from the truth
I've watched the aging face in the reflection stare at me
Watching hour by hour he affords no sympathy
I've tried to dim the lights to avoid accusing stares
But he always finds my eyes and reminds me who i am
I've felt the hand of mercy
Reaching down for me
To pull me from the trenches
To calm the stormy seas
To wash me in the waters
To cleanse me in the blood
To start my new becoming
And vanquish what i was
How could this be
That out of the darkness a light has been cast upon me
What would i do
If my own irreverence forever kept me from the truth
