This is a song.
1 29 06 What Is
In the depths of night I have fought against myself
I have fought against what is
And in all our darkest hours
We must face this
In the light of day we cover ourselves in words
We wrap them tight around our emptiness
Waiting for relief from the hurricane of suffering
But we are alone in our godliness
And must fight to preserve
That is why we feel the rage of hate
People need to be set free
Throw your burning souls into the light
It is the only way to be saved
From the weight of six billion sins
Violence against what is
Under the stars
In that moment of self exhaustion
With nothing left to hold on to
We may find ourselves and God
We may find ourselves in God

Waiting for relief from the hurricane of suffering
But we are alone in our godliness

Throw your burning souls into the light

Violence against what is

With nothing left to hold on to
We may find ourselves and God
