THROUGH YOUR LIGHT


THROUGH YOUR LIGHT

written by Jeff R Hilton

FEB. 2020


SOMETHING AND NOTHING
A PRECISE DIVISION
FATE AND LUCK
PART WAYS
LEAD YOU
TO PLACES
YOU'D RATHER NOT BE

OR PICK YOU UP
AND LEAVE YOU IN
A HIGHER PLACE
SKIP RIGHT BY
THE HARDSHIPS
DARKNESS PASSES
THROUGH YOUR LIGHT

TO THE OTHER SIDE
SHAKING LIKE A LEAF
HUDDLED IN THE DARKNESS
BRACED FOR WHATEVER
COMES NEXT
PEACE OF MIND JUST
WON'T COME

TEARS FALL 
YOU CAN'T TAKE
ONE MORE DAY
TAKE ME AWAY
FROM THIS PLACE
THAT'S MADE ME FORGET
THE FACE 
I USED TO WEAR
THE ONE THAT
USED TO LAUGH AND SMILE

YOU WERE ON YOUR WAY
SOMEHOW YOU NEVER
GAVE UP YOUR DREAMS
JUST EVERYTHING ELSE
IT SEEMS
YOU KNOW SOMEDAY
YOU'RE GONNA BE FREE 
EVEN THE DARKEST STORMS
GIVE INTO THE SUN
ALL WON'T BE SO BAD
WHEN ITS DONE

HOUSE ON THE HILL
WAY UP HIGH
LOOKING DOWN ON
EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY
BUT MISSING OUT
ON THE SKY
THERE WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED
WHILE LIFE PASSES BY

YOUR HEARTS A FORTRESS
NO ONE GETS IN
EXCEPT YOUR PLASTIC FRIENDS
ARE YOU LIVING OR ARE YOU
JUST ALIVE 
WHAT'S REALLY BEHIND
YOUR THIN VEIL
OF DISGIUSE

SAD BUT TRUE
SO MUCH
 YOU DON'T REALIZE
SO MUCH YOU DON'T SEE
YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES
DISTANCE YOURSELF
FROM WHAT'S REAL
NO LOVE 
PASSES THROUGH
YOUR LIGHT
