Darkest Days

You were the light in the darkness
That I lived in full of redemption and sin
Even though I was surrounded by the best of friends
My future was looking dim

You gave me hope in a time when I lost control
About to lose my soul
You picked me up from the gutters that I once roamed
Helped my see what I now know

When I thought there was no one there for me
Your light shined on me
You gave me hope, you gave me all I need
You set me free

When I fought against myself, to be as good as I can be
You gave me strength, you gave me what I need
You're everything to me

In the darkest of days you came into my life
It was full of so much strife
Self-destruction was the name of the game that I played
You reinforced the values that I had lost at no price or cost

And even when I slipped into the darkness again
You fought to bring me back in

I hope you know what you mean to me
You mean everything, everything
I hope you know that I'd do anything for you
I mean anything

You made a man out of me when I thought I knew it all
I knew nothing
You brought me hope in my darkest days
I love you more than anything

When I thought there was no one there for me
Your light shined on me
You gave me hope, you gave me all I need
You set me free

When I fought against myself to be as good as I could be
You gave me strength you gave me what I need
You're always there for me
