Seven Years (Shine a Light on Me)

Our Hollow, Our Home - Seven Years (Shine a Light on Me)

The fear and the doubt

The fear and the doubt grow deeper again

This process is agony, to sever the ties and shatter the pretense

Is this the end

Is this the end of how I once lived

It's killing my family

Addiction it spreads like a cancer within me

Can there be more than this?

Am I really living a life

If living a life is like this?

Or is it a lie? Forever a slave to this one tragic vice

Keep rolling the dice, but fate plays my hand leaves me nothing but snake eyes

Take steps into the dark

And when you've lost your way

Just shine a light on me

I watch the shadows dance around me

Like echoes of misery, they're nothing more than history now

Just like my father said, when there's dark days ahead

I understand just take my hand and shine your light on me

(Whoa whoa whoa)

Just shine your light on me

(Whoa whoa whoa)

Just shine your light on me

Oh, it's happened again

I promised myself I'd break free from this trend

But my consciousness wavers

Risking the bet without placing a wager

Torn between relapse and rapture

I'll make my stand and descend to the depths

Of self preservation buried deep in the landfill

Laid to waste with the wrath of my kin

I will be the remnant of transgression

So forgive me my sins

Take steps into the dark

And when you've lost your way

Just shine a light on me

I watch the shadows dance around me

Like echoes of misery, they're nothing more than history now

Just like my father said, when there's dark days ahead

I understand just take my hand and shine your light on me

(Whoa whoa whoa)

Just shine your light on me

(Whoa whoa whoa)

Just shine your light on me

I promised you, that I would be a better man

I'm taking steps to achieve the master plan

I swear I never meant to let my family down

(I think I let you down)

I promised you, that I would be a better man

Took for granted the things that made me who I am

I swear I never meant to let my family down

I guess I let you down

I promised you, that I would be a better man

Took for granted the things that made me who I am

I swear I never meant to let my family down

I guess I let you down
