From the recording ON THE BRINK
Lyrics
LET THE LIGHT IN
Lost in the crowd
No friends appear
Silence so loud
It hurts your ears
Love comes and goes
Hatred stays near
Why? No one knows
It’s all unclear
Life doesn’t play fair
Life can be so tough
Life can make you swear
That you’ve had enough
To block out the hurt
To blot out the sin
To keep off the dirt
You must let the light in
Peace is so brief
War’s up ahead
Time is a thief
Takes your daily bread
You search for truth
You search in vain
Trading your youth
For a world of pain
Life doesn’t play fair
Life can be so tough
Life can make you swear
That you’ve had enough
To block out the hurt
To blot out the sin
To keep off the dirt
You must let the light in
Summers fly by
Winters linger
You’re the fall guy
On Jerry Springer
Life doesn’t play fair
Life can be so tough
Life can make you swear
That you’ve had enough
To block out the hurt
To blot out the sin
To keep off the dirt
You must let the light in
