Vnv Nation - Where There Is Light

-The carousel begins to slow-
-I take my chances-
-So far removed, I failed to see-
-The recklessness I've shown-
-In all my words and deeds-
-The good in other souls-
-I never failed to see-

-Can you see your life-
-As far as the eyes can see-
-From this point above the world-
-Where mortals dare their destiny-
-As it radiates-
-Bare witness, open-eyed-
-Let me remain where there is light-

-In words of courage-
-It is as a shield for me-
-In words of hope-
-It reaches in and carries me-
-As it radiates-
-Bare witness, open-eyed-
-Let me remain where there is light-

-Letting go is never easy-
-Risking all for what I wanted, never needed-
-Deliberated whether I should serve the cause-
-Of greater things-
-As we moved worlds apart-

-Can you see your life-
-As far as the eyes can see-
-From this point above the world- -Where mortals dare their destiny-
-As it radiates-
-Bare witness, open-eyed-
-Let me remain where there is light-

-The greatest words-
-Would still fail me now-
-These emotions I cannot describe-
-I want to be aware, I don't need to hide myself-
-And remain there until the end of time-

-The Gods play games with mortal hearts-
-As the carousel goes 'round-
-As I looked on-
-I saw the clouds-
-That gathered, walk away-

-Can you see your life-
-As far as the eyes can see-
-From this point above the world-
-Where mortals dare their destiny-
-As it radiates-
-Bare witness, open-eyed-
-Let me remain where there is light-

-In words of courage-
-It is as a shield for me-
-In words of hope-
-It reaches in and carries me-
-As it radiates-
-Bare witness, open-eyed-
-Let me remain where there is light-
