Light Lyrics - Assemblage 23

I stand in a barren void that's featureless 

No sight or sound can penetrate at all 

Though silent storms may try to tear me down 

When dusk descends, I'll still be standing tall 

CH 

To the ones who want me on my knees 

You cannot control my destiny 

There is light that flows throughout my veins 

And there is darkness for the ones who bring me pain 

Unrelenting, unforgiving hopelessness 

Pummeled from all directions for days on end 

Can't turn the other cheek, it's far too bruised 

Can't play the part of saint, I won't pretend 

(CH)
