about

Originally released May 6, 1999.

lyrics

I need some light before I go away
I need some love before the light of day
The sunlight shining breaks through my shroud of hate
Until they listen I'll hold my breath and wait

Leaving by night all the houses we know and love
Never return to the image you built above
Never believe all the darkness here shall see you die
You should know as well as I, it's sometimes better to live a lie

There's a little boy standing on the corner
Tugging at his daddy's leg
Sliding those fears right into the light
Sometimes it's safer not to beg

This maze of faith confirms that I'm alone
I cannot see through fear 'til love is known
The silence only means this much at night
Through the tunnel I see a spark of light

There's a young man standing in the lamp light
Tugging at his father's throne
Sliding those angels into the light
Sometimes the lighting comes alone
