The Lighthouse

I have my scars, you have yours

Don't let them take your power

Don't leave it alone in the final hours

They'll take your soul, they'll take your power

Don't close your eyes and hope for the best

The dark is out there, the light is going fast

Until the final hours, your life's forever changed

And all the rights that you had yesterday

Are taken away

And now you're afraid

You should be afraid

Should be afraid

Because everything I fought for

Long ago in a dream is gone

Someone said the dream is not over

The dream has just begun, or

Is it a nightmare?

Is it a lasting scar?

It is unless you save it, and that's that

Unless you stand up and take it back

And take it back

I have my scars, you have yours

Don't let them take your power

Don't leave it alone in the final hours

They'll take your soul, they'll take your power

Unless you stand up and take it back

Try to see the future and get mad

It's slipping through your fingers, you don't have what you had

You don't have much time to get it back

I wanna be the lighthouse

Bring all of you together

Bring it out in a song

Bring it out in stormy weather

Tell them the story

Oh

I wanna teach 'em to fight

Oh

I wanna tell 'em this has happened before

Oh

Don't let it happen again

I have my scars, you have yours

Don't let them take your power

Don't leave it alone in the final hours

They'll take your soul, they'll take your power

Unless you save it, and that's that

Unless you stand up and take it back

Try to see the future and get mad

It's slippin' through your fingers, you don't have what you had

You don't have much time

You've gotta get in the game

You've gotta learn how to play

You've gotta make a change

You've gotta do it today

In the midnight hour, they'll slam the door

Make you forget what you were fighting for

Put you back in your place, they'll shut you down

You better learn how to fight, you better say it out loud

Oh

Oh
