What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Most of us will never know
2
How dark this world can seem
3
When life becomes more nightmare than a dream.
4
So to all of you who have survived
5
A visit to the edge,
6
I trust that you will understand this pledge.
7
Chorus:
8
I promise I will always leave
9
The darkness for the light.
10
I swear by all that's holy
11
I will not give up the fight.
12
I'll drink down death like water
13
Before I ever come again
14
To that dark place where I might make
15
The choice for life to end.
16
I've found that as I travelled
17
Through the inscape of my land
18
That mountaintops make valleys in between.
19
And when that nameless sadness
20
Like a cloud comes over me
21
I look back on all the brightness I have seen.
22
Chorus
23
Bridge:
24
I realize that though my world
25
Might seem so torn apart,
26
Most often it is joy that breaks the heart.
27
And that I am the richest man
28
Though I must beg for bread,
29
For the very One who might condemn
30
Has called me friend instead.
31
Chorus
32
I will always leave the darkness for the light.
33
I will not give up the fight.
