"See the Light"

I crossed the river

Fell into the sea

Where the non-believers

Go beyond belief

Then I scratched the surface

In the mouth of hell

Running out of service

In the blood I fell

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I - I don't want to lose my sight

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I need to know what's worth the fight

I've been wasted

Pills and alcohol

I've been chasing

Down the pool halls

Then I drank the water

From a hurricane

And I set a fire

Just to see the flame

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I - I don't want to lose my sight

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I need to know what's worth the fight

I crossed the desert

Reaching higher ground

Then I pound the pavement

To take the liars down

But it's gone forever

But never too late

Where the ever-after

Is in the hands of fate

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I - I don't want to lose my sight

Well I - I just want to see the light

And I need to know what's worth the fight
