In the darkest of times there's always a light, behind a false mask a hero can hide
lyrics
On the darkest of nights in an abandoned house is where he gave his life
For the one he’s been dreamin’ of, through his life he missed her
He regrets his action, he regrets his past
Searched for forgiveness in one last act
He thought the hardest part was to not belong
Through life he always felt alone
Take my tears and you will see
Why he’s dead instead of me
Take my tears and you will know
Show me your eyes before you go
“Forever’s a long long time, but she is still on my mind
The girl with the bright green eyes. Yes after all this time.
Lily, I miss her smile. So I swear to protect her son.
The boy with his mother's eyes. After all this time? Always.”
Lily saw it come, and did all she could, but no words were enough
He just said “I won’t let him find you”
But he found her place guess she got betrayed
Between life and death she chose the latter one
The hardest part was to live her life
while seeing him live a life that's lost
Find my tears and you will see
Until that day you were still with me
Find me tears and you will know
I did all I could to save you
“Forever’s a long long time, but she is still on my mind
The girl with the bright green eyes. Yes after all this time.
Lily, I miss her smile. So I swear to protect her son.
The boy with his mother's eyes. After all this time…”
In the darkest of times there’s always a light
Behind a false mask a hero can hide
“Forever’s a long long time, but she is still on my mind
The girl with the bright green eyes. Yes after all this time.
Lily, I miss her smile. So I swear to protect her son.
The boy with his mother's eyes. After all this time…”

This is a wildly uneven, unpredictable collection. And that is as it should be. From spoken word to rap to singer/songwriter acoustic to hard rock, this has at least one song for everyone. John Gaunt
