As I flick my wrist past your
Furrowed brow and through your hair
A sigh of remorse
Accompanied by a voice of despair
Will you come searching if I happen to disappear?
Grab the torches, ready the horses, and lovingly persevere
Send me out into the world
Through troubles, trials and terror
Light is most effective in darkness
Man?s call of distress and terror
A torch in a lighted room
Reaps no harvest from its labor
But that same torch in a cave or tomb
Will provoke the lost to find a Savior
Darkness can not overcome light
We must never stop burning bright
As sure as children dream
Stars will shine and birds will sing
When the light fades to black
I?ll be there waiting for you to end
As sure as night will fall
And the heart will stop beating inside us all
When you exhale your last breath
We?ll reunite in lifeless harmony
Lifeless harmony
Cover your ears children
Close your innocent eyes
Like a moth to a flame
Their paths will be compromised
I must confess I hope it?s me you hear inside your head
Like an addiction, you dont know you?re controlled
You?re so misled
I must confess I hope it?s me you hear inside your head
Like an addiction, you dont know you?re controlled
You?re so misled
Send me out into the world
Through troubles, trials and terror
Light is most effective in darkness
Man?s call of distress and terror
A torch in a lighted room
Reaps no harvest from its labor
But that same torch in a cave or tomb
Will provoke the lost to find a Savior
Darkness can not overcome light
We must never stop burning bright
As sure as children dream
Stars will shine and birds will sing
When the light fades to black
I?ll be there waiting for you to end
As sure as night will fall
And the heart will stop beating inside us all
When you exhale your last breath
We?ll reunite in lifeless harmony.

I must confess, I hope it?s me you hear inside your head
