If I fell into a bottomless pit
Would you light me a candle
So at least it was lit?

I saw you standing, crying
No one to see, no one to care
I saw you there, I was spying
I'd be the one to be, for you there

Odd to say
Change my mind
Mold it like clay
Just promise

This life of sin
That we are livin' in
Will never break me
As if I'd be noticed

Through the darkness I fell
A smile played a melody to hell
Through the darkness I saw
A candle drifting straining to be
Noticed

I called her "Faith"
She became my friend
Know this
She came to an end

Lost to the darkness
My dearest faith did
Once so bright now spark less
I like to believe
From the hate, she hid

(Under Construction)

Faith is stronger than darkness, I believe. The candle isn't burnt down yet ...

You constructed this well.

Love,
