Be A Light

(album: Jess Godwin - 2012)

Easy to cheat, easy to lie
Easy to break, easy to cry
Easy to run, easy to hide
Everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

Easy to judge, easy to hate
Easy to use, easy to take
Easy to hurt, easy to blame
Everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

I wanna be angry
I wanna be diving in
I wanna look crazy
I want to fight, I want to play to win

Oh, I'm drowning in reds
Coming to an end
But I would rather
Be a light instead

Easy to tease, easy to talk
Easy to pick, easy to knock
Easy to sit, easy to watch
Everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

I wanna be angry (I wanna be)
I wanna be diving in
I wanna look crazy
I want to fight, I want to play to win

Oh, I'm drowning in reds
Coming to an end
But I would rather
Be a light instead

When we're in the dark
And we're falling apart
I believe that we can
Reach into our souls
Find a beacon, a home

I wanna be, I wanna be
I wanna be angry
I wanna be, I wanna be

Oh, I'm drowning in reds
Coming to an end
But I would rather
Be a light instead

Oh, I'm drowning in reds
Coming to an end
But I would rather
Be a light instead

Oh, I'm drowning in blue
Gonna follow through
'Cause I would rather
Be a light for you
