Deceived by my eyes and all I was told I should see Opinions not mine, the person they taught me to be One night in the dark, a vision of someone I knew And in the darkness I saw, a voice say, I'm you. Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive CHORUS If you close your eyes your life, a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed In the darkness, light will take you to the other side and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes Hearts uninspired, trapped inside somebody's dream Too close to the fire, yet cold and numb with the pain But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea Washed to the ocean, and saved by a voice inside me. Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive CHORUS Never thought I would be here, so high in the air This was my unanswered prayer Defined by another, so much wasted time Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine CHORUS
