13 (There Is a Light)

And if the terrors of the night

Come creeping into your days

And the world comes stealing children from your room

Guard your innocence from hallucination

And know that darkness always gathers around the light

There is a light we can't always see

If there is a world, we can't always be

If there is a dark, then we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light, don't let it go out

When the wind screams and shouts

And the sea is a dragon's tail

And the ship that stole your heart away sets sail

When all you've left is leaving

And all you got is grieving

And all you know is needing

If there is a light we can't always see

If there is a world, we can't always be

If there is a dark, then we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light, don't let it go out

'Cause this is a song

A song for someone

Someone like me

I know the world is done

But you don't have to be

I've got a question for the child in you before it leaves

Are you tough enough to be kind?

Do you know your heart has its own mind?

Darkness gathers around the lights

Hold on, hold on

There is a light we can't always see

If there is a world, we can't always be

If there is a dark, then we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light, don't let it go out

And this is a song

A song for someone

This is a song

A song for someone

Someone like me

Someone like me

Someone like me
