In the darkness...by a light

In the darkness...by a light
Sitting in the darkness
By a light I must grow
Remorse sits beside me
The only friend that I know

The secrets I carry with me
I musn't tell a soul
For the darkness consumes me
From the choices I've condoned

Can another be trusted
From the secret that I hide
No, they cant...they cant
Someone always lets it slide

I can only hope that time
will erase it from my head
I can only hope that life
will keep it from his bed

Guilt plagues me...
Oh it kills
Please dear God
Let this not be your will.

For I am only in the darkness
By a light...with hope of peace
