Say the words, out of trust, out of time, out of luck, out of trust
Oh, it hurts, letting go, nothing less than a must
Let go of the light, I'll show you the dark
Take you for a ride, I'll show you the stars
Let go of the light, I'll show you the dark
Take you for a ride, I'll show you the stars
So tell my brethren, hold the line
As my heart leaves from the light
You know I hoped, at least once more
To see you
Although I never said goodbye
And now I'm dying here slow
I hope you'll find it in your heart to let me go
And no, I never met the reaper, but he led me to his home
I could hear him through the parlor, sippin' mead and singing songs
I thought twice bout joining company, left on battlefield alone
But then a glimmer caught my eye as the scripture had foretold
It was my lady's light so lovely calleth me to stay so strong
Rippling round that darkened dungeon
Towards the light that I was from
I felt a shiver through my spine, it sunk heavy in my heart
I knew that if I was dying tonight, I'd never meet a god
So then I crawled on knees and elbows up the ladder to the sun
And don't you tell me that it's over till the devil's deal is done
I was digging through mines, felt my savior in the soil
And when the daylight finally struck me
There was light within my soul
