In The Light Songtext

I keep trying to find a life
On my own apart from you
I am the king of excuses
I've got one for every selfish thing i do

[tell me] what's going on inside of me
I despise my own behavior
[this only] serves to confirm my suspicion
That i'm still a man in need of a savior

[chorus]
s,onfco.hknooobn
I wanna be in the light
As you are in the light
I wanna shine like the stars
In the heavens
Oh, lord be my light
And be my salvation
'cause all i want is to be in the light

This desease of self runs through my blood [through my blood]
It's a cancer fatal to my soul
Every help on my behalf has failed
To bring this sickness under control


[so tell me] what's going on inside of me
I despise my own behavior
[this only] serves to confirm my suspicion
That i'm still a man in need of a savior

[chorus]
s,onfco.hknooobn
I wanna be in the light
As you are in the light
I wanna shine like the stars
In the heavens
Oh, lord be my light
And be my salvation
'cause all i want is to be in the light

[bridge]
Honesty becomes me
[there's nothing left to lose]
The secrets that did run me
[in your presence are defused]
Pride has no position
[and riches have no worth]
The fame that once did cover me
[has been sentenced to this earth]
Has been sentenced to this earth

[tell me] what's going on inside of me
I despise my own behavior
[this only] serves to confirm my suspicion
That i'm still a man in need of a savior

[chorus]
s,onfco.hknooobn
I wanna be in the light
As you are in the light
I wanna shine like the stars
In the heavens
Oh, lord be my light
And be my salvation
'cause all i want is to be in the light [2x]

[there's no other place that i want to be]
[no other place that i can see]
[a place to be that's just right]
[someday i'm gonna be in the light]
[you are in the light]
[that's where i need to be]
[that's right where i need to be]
