lyrics

Where Life Will Lead You:

conceived in love but born into - the fearful arms of a mother

who wanted nothing more than to - shield me from another

but as I grew - so did the light - in my eyes they took from me

and placed it down inside my heart - I now am blind but once could see

the light did keep me warm inside - while others spoke of destiny

but as I grew no matter how - hard I tried I could not see

this light transplant of the heart - my body did reject from me

I embraced the world like a drunken fool - and all the pleasures she had for me....

with the world torn open I ripped out the light - placed in my heart unwillingly

Lifted it up in front of the world - to light the path I could not seek

I've carried this cross as far as I can - on my heart unwillingly

now is the time to make my own life - not knowing where each path will lead.....

Oh this light of mine. Light of my eyes.
I'm gonna let it shine. I'm gonna let it shine.....
