Only In Darkness You Can See the Star
only in darkness you can see the star
I managed to stand above
never below
I don't care what it takes
yet I managed to be there
some how in all this darkness
I managed to share a light
some how I manage
to wipe out the tears
of joy on the faces of the poor
when I managed to gave
some how I managed to
write
I wonder how I managed
this words of wisdom
despite all this darkness
I scramble
I managed to live above
never below
despite the sadness
of life
I managed to keep
warm in a cold world
darkness don't fear me anymore
cos am the light it fears instead
the more the darkness
the more I shine
the deeper the darkness
the deeper I light the world
if you doubt
you can see by yourself
above the dark sky that
only in darkness you can see the star
