The Light
Henry Saiz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I stare beyond my eyes
And there is nothing inside
Don′t know who did this to me
But I feel something's not right

Every subject in my head
Is searching a place to hide
I don′t know where the hell I've been
'Cause I was living a lie

I feel that everything′s stood in my way
It has to be that day
I wake up in the middle of the night
And suddenly, I start to see the light

I feel my heart running dry
And my arms are open wide
I know this is not the end
But I feel something′s not right

Every word chucked in my mouth
Is searching a place to hide
I don't know where the hell I′ve been
'Cause I was living a lie

I feel that everything′s stood in my way
It has to be that day
I wake up in the middle of the night
And suddenly, I start to see the light

I feel that everything's stood in my way
It has to be that day




I wake up in the middle of the night
And suddenly I start to see the light
