My Light

Theres a light hidden somewhere I swore I knew it once upon a time At least I thought there was Someone told me that, that light was Hope I hear you can find that light in young children still But I hope those children grow up better than I I watched one day as that light was torn from my heart Torn from my soul By this harsh cruel world Surviving this life with that light is a feat Someday I plan to find my light again One day an elderly man told a little girl The world’s a cold dark place, But it doesn’t have to be that way It can be beautiful as long as you keep that light The one In your heart alive I am that little girl But I foolishly gave my light to someone else And they demolished it Maybe someday Somewhere Someone will replenish it
