Ode to darkness (the lighthouse song) Video (MV)

In the darkness of the world
There is a safe place above all
One where no one sees the scars
That made you stronger

In the ocean in the night
Is the silence of a fight
To avoid the blinding light
That wants to conquer

And you'd say it's rather odd
That in all this world of God
I'd much rather live
Where suns don't come to shine through

See, I've learned it in hard ways
That when someone knows your face
They no longer see the soul
That sure defines you

But where nothing ever shines
I'm the ruler by design
All I need is but a voice
And strings to pluck on

And my heart that beats so strong
To the rhythm of my song
Has no face so he's no slave
And the shackles are all gone
And the shackles are all gone

Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us

This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom than light ever does

In the solitude I keep
While awake and while asleep
If I ever wished that I
Could be another

I have found a great relief
Through the fear and through the grief
In the love my songs and I
Have for each other

They have taught me through my breath
About life and about death
And have seen my future years
Before it came true

In the darkness of this world
In this quiet above all
All alone and right before the
Sky could turn blue

So where nothing ever shines
I'm the ruler by design
All I need is but a voice
And strings to pluck on

And my heart that beats so strong
To the rhythm of my song
Has no face so he's no slave
And the shackles are all gone
And the shackles are all gone

Turn off the lighthouse
And blow out the fire
It's never saved one of us

This pretty darkness
Is all I desire
It's always done more for
Freedom than light ever does
