I hear your words in the silent night,
They make me wide awake.
You're talking over my sleepy head,
And you don't give me no break.
The light I've seen is so far gone
And the safety that I felt,
Can't make me strong no more
You don't ever compromise,
It's your words against mine.
My soul stands in the shadow of
Your strong controlling mind.
The light I've seen is so far gone
And the safety that I felt,
Can't comfort me no more.
Why did you come to stay
Why did you look my way
In the first place?
Why mess me up with words
Do you know how much that hurts?
...
Now that you're blown away
I close my eyes and pray
For the first time.
Living next to you here
Was more than I thought I'd dare
In my new life!
I woke up from a dream last night
And I surely realized
The only one who can make me strong
Is myself and my own life
The light I've seen is clearer now
And the safety that I felt
Is coming back with love
(Is coming back with love)
