I See the Light

I see the light. By Anthony Grider 8/6/1994 What goes up must come down., Don't get your hopes up so high., Or you'll find yourself on the ground., Asking yourself why. Sometimes it's hard to find your way., Always someone trying to tell you what to say., Trying to flip your blue skies to grey. I find myself in the dark, but I can see the light., Trying to sleep but up all night., Blinded but trying to regain my sight., O I'm in the dark but I see the light. Beaten down but I can still fight., O In the dark but I see the light, O I can see the light. Saying grass is greener on the other side., You look in the mirror and you close your eyes., Always running what do you have to hide., Feel like your standing still while life passes you by. People tear you down., Try to twist you up., Time to get off the ground., Time to stand up. O I might be in the dark but I see the light., Trying to say I'm wrong but I know I'm right. O I'm in the dark but I see the light., Been beaten down but I still can fight., O I'm in the dark but I see the light., Been blinded but have regain my sight., O I'm in the dark but I see the light. O I see the light. They say don't count your chickens before they hatch., It seems like nothing goes your way., Life's a fast ball you just can't catch., No sun but always a rainy day. But you cant let it get you down., You've got to pick yourself off the ground., You've got to make it work your way., Who cares what anyone else has to say. O I'm in the dark but I see the light., Been beaten down but I still can fight., O In the dark but I see the light., Been blinded but have regain my sight., O I'm in the dark but I see the light. Time to get reading for the fight., Saying I'm wrong but I know I'm right., O Blinded but I've regain my sight., O I'm in the dark but I see the light. O I see the light.
