Sight

Where some see lines on a bitter face
I see wounds that time couldn't erase
Where some see a dying earth
I envision a chance for rebirth
You think I'm blind for all the good that I see
But, I'm not as naive as you think I might be
I've seen through the eyes that see only the dark
I've felt the pain and I have the scars
In my moments alone, with no one around
Faith, Hope and Love can still be found
I've sometimes been wronged and to some shut the door
But I won't waste my time trying to settle the score
I won't waste my energy, my light or my soul
On bitter revenge, I'd rather be whole
So think me naive or think me a fool
I'll still live my life by my own set of rules
I'll look past the darkness and seek out the light
Thankful to have a different kind of sight
I'll keep on believing in Faith, Hope and Love
Kiss the moon and the stars, that shine high above
And when my time comes, and this life is over
I'll leave peacefully, hand in hand with my lover
