Deceived by my eyes and all I was told I should see    Opinions not mine, the person they taught me to be   One night in the dark, a vision of someone I knew    And in the darkness I saw, a voice say, I'm you.   Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive       CHORUS   If you close your eyes your life, a naked truth revealed   Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed    In the darkness, light will take you to the other side   and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes      Hearts uninspired, trapped inside somebody's dream   Too close to the fire, yet cold and numb with the pain   But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea    Washed to the ocean, and saved by a voice inside me.   Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive       CHORUS       Never thought I would be here, so high in the air    This was my unanswered prayer    Defined by another, so much wasted time    Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine      CHORUS
