Sunlight…It shines across my face.
Love…Your love lives inside of my eyes.
These fools…They speak white and black lies.

I will be the martyr for your heart.

And in death of one self

I am reborn.

Once again, living within the sun and your love

inside the dark hole known as loneliness

I fight off these tears and blackened hearts that come to me.
I fall to my knees

Begging for your love’s light

Giving my one last plea

Never surrendering to the dark hole

Or letting it consume my whole soul.

Now my soul and tears

Are worn on my face

And not on my sleeve

I needed you to want and believe

In all of the good in me
and not the bitter, forgotten woman I had used to be.

The sun breaks out of a cloud.
And here is your smile.
My hopes are daring and loud.
Preying on your love’s shining light,
Toguide me through my soul’s dark nights.
