From the depths of this darkness
The light sparked on its own
It began to ignite, without action,
Atleast none that was shown
And from blackness, so pitch,
I felt its warmth on my face,
It sank into my skin, and
In my heart, found its place.

I found peace through our pain
The joy fell just like rain
And I managed a smile
Though the world's gone insane
I trudged on toward the light
And I cried at the site
Of a thousand faces
Escaping the night

And I watched the ash fall
The substance covered the past
And from the darkest of memories,
We vowed to never look back,
We marched onward, like soldiers,
And left no man behind
We dropped all our pain
Where no one could find.

I found peace through our pain
The joy fell just like rain
And I managed a smile
Though the world's gone insane
I trudged on toward the light
And I cried at the site
Of a thousand faces
Escaping the night
