To let your light shine bright in my life In my life. ,,,


There are ghosts from my past who have owned more of my soul.
Than I thought I had given away. They linger in closets and under my
bed. And in pictures less proudly dis-played.
A great fool in my Life I have been.
Have squandered (PREMRHAT, PREMARNIT =WASTE) til pallid (BLEDY, SINAVY) and thin.
Hung my head in shame and refused to take blame.
From darkness I know I've let win.

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
