A flash of light in the darkness
A glimmer of hope in the night
A ray of sunlight to purge all
A bright gleam of flaming might

The shadows shrink away
Pushed back by the awesome force
And as the battle rages on
I let fate run its course

For the first time in ages
I fill my sight with the sun
And it’s rays bathe around me
And for once I do not run

As the shadows grow smaller
And the light fills my soul
As my vision grows stronger
I think I finally know

I know what peace feels like
I understand my fears
Facing each in turn and head on
One by one they disappear

And I stand surrounded by strength
And I know we’ll meet again
‘Cause my demons are gone
And only the light remains
