Touch This Light

(album: Cold Hard Want - 2012)

When I get lost in a sea of grey,
When I get tangled up in the wires,
And my only hope is a beggar's grace,
It's you that I find,
Before I'm blinded.

I can see you there,
In a rain of fire,
Reaching out for me,
I can touch it,
I can hear your voice,
Calling out my name,
I wanna touch this light.

When I feel crushed underneath the weight,
Cursing every step as I tow the line,
I say my prayers to a rebel king,
Your light shines,
Before I'm caught up in it.

Make a run make a run for the sun.
Make a run make run. Touch this light.

If I could see what you see in me,
If I just pushed through the crippling fear,
Then I would run with the raging wind,
Then I would live again.
