My fire is starved of oxygen A flicker in the howling wind Beware the night is closing in And if I fall asleep the shadows win Well the darkness came to take my faith It tried to steal my words to pray My love came down like holy rain And she became my God that day And she became my God that day She taught me how to think out loud To listen when there ain't no sound To love myself through all the doubt To sing and make my mother proud To sing and make my mother proud In the dark I learned to love again A sacred place it's always been Where souls depart and life begins The dark led me to light again Yeah the dark led me to light again Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Yeah the dark led me to light again Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Yeah the dark led me to light again Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Yeah the dark led me to light again Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Yeah the dark led me to light again
