In Light
The Russian Sleep Experiment Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel the light In a world filled with darkness.
We find hate,
Distrust and greed
That covers the land
But in the black of night,
Some shine the light
And face the world with courage
Feel the light
Inside of you
Let it fill you with ambition
And make your greatest dreams reality
We shroud ourselves in
A shadow of submission
We're so compliant with
Suppressing our potential
Shatter the walls of the darkness
Shatter the walls
And break free
Break
Deep down we yearn to mend the void
But we're scared to face the unknown
Deep down we yearn to mend the void
But we're scared to face failure
I see the darkness in people everyday
Being put forth as if it were a shield
Why do people hide the light in themselves
When that is what makes them whole?
Break free
I will find my light and illuminate the world
So those surrounded in darkness can see




And spread their flame.
(end)
