Lyrics:

  • Oh lord, to see a light,
  • but fail in strength to follow,
  • Sometimes it's hard to let it go.

  • Oh lord, to fail in heart,
  • and each day grow more hollow,

  • Sometimes I just don't wanna know.

  • But the road that led me here,
  • it's begun to disappear.
  • Sometimes I wonder where I am.

  • Oh lord, to hear a voice,
  • but let it fade and wallow,

  • Sometimes it's hard to let it go.

  • Oh lord, to find the words,
  • but keep them in and swallow,
  • One day the top is gonna blow.

  • But the road that left me here,
  • it's begun to disappear.
  • Sometimes I wonder who I am.

  • Oh lord, to stumble blind,
  • for years without knowing,

  • Sunrise has burned my eyes again.

  • Oh lord, to crumble quiet
  • watching from the silence.
  • Sunrise has burned my eyes again.

  • It's a seven-story mountain.
  • It's a long, long life we live.
  • Got to find a light and fill my heart again.

  • It's a seven-story mountain.
  • It's a long, long life ahead.
  • Got to find a voice and fill my throat again.
