Dark & Light – Explained

Lyrics by Linda

[Intro – Piano Solo]

[Verse 1]
Lay all your life on the kitchen floor
The truth is about to be seen
Nothing to hide or to lie here for
This one’s for you, not for me

Giving it all is the hardest part
Just half of you won’t make the way
Tear it all down for a clean new start
I’ll be with you every day

[Chorus]
Don’t stay in the dark
Be true to yourself
See, the light in your heart
Is you, no-one else

Don’t pretend there’s a way
When all you do is run
Cause you’re afraid to stay
And look at all that went wrong

[Verse 2]
The holes in your soul are a bumpy street
No car can drive on this road
Filling them up is a task indeed
But better than this heavy load

Don’t choose to repeat your history
When you can be a butterfly
You don’t have to be a big mystery
Explaining yourself with a lie

[Chorus]
Don’t stay in the dark
Be true to yourself
See, the light in your heart
Is you, no-one else

Don’t pretend there’s a way
When all you do is run
Cause you’re afraid to stay
And look at all that went wrong

[Bridge – Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Don’t stay in the dark
Be true to yourself
See, the light in your heart
Is you, no-one else

Don’t pretend there’s a way
When all you do is run
Cause you’re afraid to stay
And look at all that went wrong
