Burn In My Light

I waited so long to be saved But a savior never came No Superman to save me From the edge of the cliff So I picked myself up Nursed my wounds Fixed my clothes And now I'm overlooking A raging ocean Feeling the spray Of Poseidon's wrath But something is boiling Beneath my skin Racing through my veins Sharpening my gaze Because the thing is When the pain finally vanishes All that is left Is all consuming rage Maybe you don't understand How long I dangled From the edge of the cliff How long I waited For someone to come along How long I waited To simply feel like I mattered But like a forgotten footnote in time Nobody even knows my name So let me just say it My name is Christopher I'm no longer frowning I'm no longer at risk of drowning My name is Christopher And there is no more sorrow Only anger So thank you for nothing Because I waited so long to be saved But a savior never came So I saved myself And now look at me glowing But to you it's burning So feel free To burn in my light
