I've seen the darkness within the light
I've seen the dawn beneath the night
I've heard the voices from places well known
I've allowed seeds planted but they're not my own
The war rages between past and now
The desire and passion obscured somehow
Believe what I see or what I've seen
Belief in something in between
So much in my heart it's hard to know
So much in my head tempting me so
A kind of madness that destroys the soul
A love so deep that none could know
Embracing the light that begs to be seen
But vulnerable to those dark times in between
Voices demanding to be heard
Manifesting doubts of the wholly absurd
Weak from this pointless battle, ready to fall
But for her I stand and risk it all
Whether I stand on the mount or crumple to the ground
The path leads where the voices can make no sound
In this I am fool or prophet
It is for us to know
Silence the voices, they come from dark places below
